Strategy and Action Plan for the Conservation and Management of Elephants in Mozambique 2010-2015
DNAC
2010
Todas as Províncias
The National Strategy and Action Plan for the Conservation and Management of Elephants in Mozambique seeks to maintain and, where possible, increase the numbers and range of elephant populations, their habitats and associated biodiversity, ensuring full economic benefit to national and local development, including the communities with whom they share the land. This will be achieved by conserving elephants and their range through the provision of effective protection; managing elephant populations in collaboration with local stakeholders; reducing HEC through mitigation, spatial planning and increased community benefits; ensuring an efficient and effective institutional and organisational framework for elephant management.

The avifauna and forest vegetation of Mt. Mabu, northern Mozambique, with notes on mammals
Dowsett-Lemaire, F. & Dowset, R.
2009
Nampula; Zambézia
Mount Mabu in northern Mozambique (peak at 1710 m) lies a short distance east of the taller Mt Chiperone (2054 m), and about 90 km SE of Mt Mulanje (3002 m) in adjacent Malawi. It is clothed in an extensive undulating mantle of forest from an altitude of about 950–1000 to 1600–1650 m, estimated to cover some 60–70 km², making it the largest mid-altitude forest in Mozambique. The lower slopes are covered in transition woodland, riparian forest (down to at least 300 m), cultivation and neglected tea plantations. The latter have developed into tea forest, overtopped by Albizia adianthifolia and other indigenous trees.

Biodiversity of the Zambezi Basin Wetlands: Review and Preliminary Assessment of Available Information
Timberlake, J.
1998
Sofala; Tete; Zambézia
The Regional Office for Southern Africa of IUCN (IUCN-ROSA), in conjunction with the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA), initiated the Zambezi Basin Wetlands Conservation and Resource Utilisation Project (ZBWCRUP) in 1996. This project is aimed at ensuring wise use of natural resources of the wetlands of the Zambezi Basin, focussing in particular on four project sites (the Barotse floodplains in western Zambia, the floodplains and swamps of the Chobe/Caprivi region of Namibia and Botswana, the wetlands of the Lower Shire in southern Malawi and Mozambique, and the Zambezi Delta in Mozambique).

This study evaluated the conservation status of tree populations and the impact of illegal logging in the Niassa National Reserve, a huge protected area in northern Mozambique, bordering Tanzania. The Miombo woodland around 8 villages was sampled on 43 transects laid out from log patios showing evidence of felling. Standing trees and stumps of 8 timber species (P. angolensis, A. quanzensis, M. sthulmannii, B. africana, C. imberbe, D. melanoxylon, P. angolensis and S. madagascariensis) were identified, quantified and measured. A total of 173 respondents in 12 villages were interviewed about their perception on logging and its benefits.

Tracking Wildlife Conservation in Southern Africa: Histories of Protected Areas in Gorongosa and Maputaland
McKeown, K.
2015
This project began as an investigation into the visual history of Mozambique’s Gorongosa National Park and the way that wildlife images shaped its past. I wanted to expand the historiography of protected areas beyond the human displacement narratives that had directed the field and think more carefully about how different images of “wilderness,” which had incited and corroborated human displacements and dispossession, were produced and circulated. I was also interested in exploring alternative visions of these areas beyond white, colonial, and tourist projections. I intended to explore different media, including films and photography, as well as local impressions of the landscape, as a way of understanding diverse constructions of place.

Although the first petroleum fields in the Mozambique basin were discovered more than 60 years ago, the composition and origin of petroleum fluids in this basin are largely unknown. We studied the geochemical composition of petroleum gases and liquids from the Inhassoro, Pande and Temane fields located onshore Mozambique. The gases are relatively dry (methane-dominated, average C1/(C1–C5) ratio is ~0.96), have pure thermogenic origin, originate predominantly from marine shale source organofacies and show no evidence of primary microbial gas or biodegradation.

A MRV system should be, as required, a robust and transparent national forest monitoring system for the monitoring and reporting REDD+ activities, providing estimates that must be transparent, consistent (over time and with the established Forest Reference Levels) and accurate (taking into account national capabilities and capacities). All REDD+ results based actions should be fully measured, reported and verified. Furthermore, as the REDD+ scheme is expected to deliver emission reductions and other co‐benefits, the MRV system should be designed to help track a range of other indicators such as biodiversity and social benefits.

Elephant poaching in Niassa Reserve, Mozambique: population impact revealed by combined survey trends for live elephants and carcasses
Booth, V. & Dunham, K.
2014
Fauna & Flora International
Niassa
Trends in the populations of large herbivores in Niassa Reserve, Mozambique, have been monitored through biennial aerial surveys since 1998. The elephant Loxodonta africana population has been subjected to intensive illegal hunting since 2006. We used a simple population model to mimic the observed trends in the numbers of live and dead elephants to demonstrate the impact of poaching. The number of fresh or recent carcasses recorded was used in the model as an index of the annual mortality rate. A maximum likelihood analysis to compare population models revealed that the best fit to the survey estimates of both live elephants and old or very old carcasses was a model that started with 6635 elephants in 1987.

Understanding the mechanisms limiting the buffalo population in Niassa National Reserve, Mozambique

African Buffalo Symposium
Niassa
The Niassa National Reserve (NNR), Mozambique is one of the vastest protected areas in Africa (42,140 km2) and includes around 39,000 local residents within the limits of the reserve. NNR suffered from 10 years of independence war (1964-1974) and 15 years of civil war (1977-1992), during which wildlife population decreased substantially. Despite important conservation efforts, the density of ungulate community remains strikingly low compared to other similar savanna systems, especially buffalo which is considered as a key asset for the local trophy hunting industry and has logically become a management priority for the NNR. We addressed this issue through three main protocols.

N/A
The vegetation survey described here was carried out within this research, with a specific aim of providing information for the first aspect of the research, related to spatial heterogeneity. It is therefore NOT a botanical inventory as such, but more of a collection of information for mapping purposes. As a matter of fact, accurate information on the vegetation and forage resources is essential in order to be able to analyse data on the buffaloes themselves, mainly through GPS “collars” that provide positions of 8 sample buffalo herds since 2009 (cf. Prin, 210 :Collaring Operation Report).

GEOSCIENCE AND REMOTE SENSING
N/A
The seasonal cycle of tree leaf display in the savannas and woodlands of the seasonally dry tropics is complex, and robust observations are required to illuminate the processes at play. Here, we evaluate three types of data for this purpose, comparing scatterometry (QuikSCAT !0) and optical/near-infrared MODIS EVI remotely sensed data against field observations. At a site in Mozambique, the seasonal cycles from both space-borne sensors are in close agreement with each other and with estimates of tree plant area index derived from hemispherical photography (r > 0.88).

Cabo Delgado; Zambézia
The sengis (elephant-shrews) of Mozambique are poorly known, especially the taxonomic status of the giant sengis, genus Rhynchocyon. Currently, Rhynchocyon from Mozambique are thought to be chequered sengis, R. cirnei with specimens from the central coastal areas being placed in the subspecies R. c. cirnei, while the subspecific status of those from north-eastern areas has not been determined. To resolve this taxonomic ambiguity, we collected voucher specimens from north-eastern Mozambique.

The process of postwar reconstruction which followed the signing of Mozambique’s General Peace Accord in 1992 saw a proliferation of disputes over land and resources operating on different levels. Gregory Myers and the Land Tenure Center (LTC) project in Mozambique have explored the set of conflicts associated with the government practice of land redistribution to the private sector, including the insecurity and conflict generated by a poorly functioning land-titling procedure and the lack of a central institution for adjudicating overlapping claims.

Quantifying ecosystem carbon stocks is vital for understanding the relationship between changes in land use and carbon dioxide emissions. Here, we estimate carbon stocks in an area of miombo woodland in Mozambique, by identifying the major carbon stocks and their variability. Data on the biomass of tree stems and roots, saplings, and soil carbon stocks are reported and compared with other savannas systems around the globe. A new allometric relationship between stem diameter and tree stem and root biomass is presented, based on the destructive harvest of 29 trees. These allometrics are combined with an inventory of 12,733 trees on 58 plots over an area of 27 ha.

Carbon Balance and Management
Niassa
The United Nation’s Program for Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation (REDD+) aims to reduce the 20% contribution to global emissions of greenhouse gases from the forest sector, offering a financial value of the carbon stored in forests as an incentive for local communities. The pre-requisite for the setup of a participatory REDD + Program is the monitoring, reporting and verification (MRV) of baseline carbon stocks and their changes over time. In this study, we investigated miombo woodland’s dynamics in terms of composition, structure and biomass over a 4-year period (2005–2009), and the Carbon Stock Density (CSD) for the year 2009.

The African lion is listed as vulnerable with an estimated 23 000 to 40 000 lions remaining in Africa (Nowell et al. 2006) while the African wild dog is considered endangered with less than 8000 individuals remaining (IUCN/SSC, in prep, 2008). As a result of the work of the Niassa Carnivore Project, NNR has been identified as a priority for both lion (2006; Nowell et al 2006) and African wild dog (IUCN/SSC, in prep, 2008) conservation in eastern and southern Africa. The lion population is believed to be one of only five lion populations left in Africa that is currently increasing.

Nampula; Zambézia
The montane inselbergs of northern Mozambique have been comparatively little-studied, yet recent surveys have shown they have a rich biodiversity with numerous endemic species. Here we present the main findings from a series of scientific expeditions to one of these inselbergs, Mt Mabu, and discuss the conservation implications. Comprehensive species lists of plants, birds, mammals and butterflies are presented. The most significant result was the discovery of a c. 7,880 ha block of undisturbed rainforest, most of it at medium altitude (900–1,400 m), a forest type that is not well represented elsewhere. It is possibly the largest continuous block of this forest type in southern Africa.

During July 2011, I visited the Gorongosa National Park, partly to investigate a phenomenon that several staff had mentioned as a possible pathological sign for the post-catastrophic ecology of the Park. There is a large population (approx. 13,000) of waterbuck (Kobus ellipsiprymnus) on the Urema floodplain, with a proportion of the waterbuck reputedly showing bleached fur, and several territorial males with only one horn.

Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) are useful for a great quantity and diversity of applications, namely for hydrologic studies that require the identification of hydrographic basins and water lines. Basins’ boundaries and the hydrographic network can be automatically extracted from DEMs, therefore their accuracy is influenced by the DEMs accuracy. Hence, it is important to control the influence of DEMs errors over the features extracted from them, since differences may be found that influence the basins’ management and/or the modeling of other phenomena.

Historically cheetah were relatively widespread in Mozambique with records from the north, west and southern parts of the country. More recently significant populations were only known to exist in the north west corner of Tete Province, and within and on the periphery of the Limpopo Valley and Bauhine National Parks. Previous assessments of population concluded that hunting cheetahs for skins had reduced its ranged within the country, as well as a reduction in prey populations. This assessment indicates that the population of cheetahs appears to have further declined, with recent records only reported from the north west of Tete Province.

Debates about the potential poverty alleviation impacts of global carbon markets are far from settled. We extend this debate by examining the impacts of a project in Mozambique that pays local people for carbon forestry activities. We conduct before-and-after project comparison using household data from project and non-project villages. Even though the poorest households participate widely in the project, the impact on incomes is small despite generous carbon accounting and contract terms. Leakage and impermanence remain strong concerns. Development activities under the project unrelated to carbon sequestration have a much bigger impact, albeit on a smaller number of households.

Mount Gorongosa is a large inselberg almost 700 sq. km in extent in central Mozambique. With a vertical relief of between 900 and 1400 m above the surrounding plain, the highest point is at 1863 m. The mountain consists of a Lower Zone (mainly below 1100 m altitude) containing settlements and over which the natural vegetation cover has been strongly modified by people, and an Upper Zone in which much of the natural vegetation is still well preserved. Both zones are very important to the hydrology of surrounding areas.

Few long-term climate and environmental records are available for southeast Africa where millennial scale shifts in the north-south position of the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) and changes in Indian Ocean sea surface temperatures interact with local controls (e.g., fire, hydrology) to influence vegetation and ecosystem dynamics. Reconstruction of late-Pleistocene e Holocene environmental change from peat sediments obtained from Mount Gorongosa, central Mozambique, provides insight into vegetation, climate and disturbance interactions over the past c. 27 kyr.

Vegetation and carrying capacity of the ‘Sanctuario’, Parque Nacional da Gorongosa, Moçambique
Stalmans, M.
2006
An assessment was made of the vegetation, habitat suitability and carrying capacity of the 6,200 ha Sanctuario in the south-western part of the Parque Nacional da Gorongosa (henceforth PNG). Primarily, this study is aimed at supporting the re-introduction strategy for wildlife as part of the restoration of the PNG. The intention is to determine the ‘envelope’ of potential within which policy and actual implementation decisions can be made.
