Deepwater Exploration Drilling Operations in the Rovuma Offshore Area 1, Mozambique
IMPACTO
2008
Anadarko Moçambique Área 1, Lda
Cabo Delgado
Anadarko Moçambique Área 1, Lda (AMA1) signed an Exploration and Production Concession (EPC) contract with the Government of the Republic of Mozambique for Offshore Area 1 (Area 1) in the Rovuma Basin. The EPC contract gives AMA1 exclusive rights to explore for and produce commercial quantities of hydrocarbons in the block. As part of the agreement AMA1 has committed to undertake 2D and 3D seismic surveys and to drill a minimum of seven wells, with a minimum of four in water depths greater than 200m. The main objective of the drilling phase is to determine if the identified prospects (arising from the seismic survey1 initiated in January 2008) have hydrocarbons in commercial quantities. The exploratory drilling is a temporary activity.

The Miombo Ecoregion covers approximately 3.6 million km2 in eleven countries of Central, Eastern and Southern Africa. The region is biologically rich and diverse both in terms of plant and animal species. In Mozambique the miombo woodlands occur to the North of the Save River up to the Rovuma River (i.e. the border with Tanzania) and occupy approximately two-thirds of the national forested area (Marzoli, 2007). It is highly important both ecologically and socio-economically as it provides goods and services for over 50% of the population.

Using Analysis of Climate Change Vulnerability and Adaptive Capacity for Program Decision-Making: Lessons from CARE Ethiopia’s Experience
Dazé, A.
2014
CARE Ethiopia
N/A
Recognizing the implications of climate change for poverty reduction and social justice in Ethiopia, CARE Ethiopia is taking concrete action to integrate climate change across its program portfolio. Participatory analysis of climate change vulnerability and adaptive capacity has proven to be an important first step, providing valuable insights into rural people’s experiences of climate change, how climate-related shocks and stresses affect their livelihoods and how they are currently responding. This analysis, conducted with communities and local stakeholders, has enabled CARE and its partners to better understand the opportunities for adaptation and the barriers people face in increasing their resilience and adaptive capacity.

N/A
At the time of writing, the 17th Conference of the Parties (COP17) to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) approaches. Unprecedented global and regional attention is currently being directed towards climate variability and change. Whatever the outcome of the international negotiations, southern Africa will largely have to take upon itself the responsibility of understanding and responding to climate change. Many promising initiatives in this regard have, indeed, long been underway on the subcontinent. This handbook represents a contribution to efforts in southern Africa to better understand climate variability and change, likely impacts and possible responses.

Climate Risk and Vulnerability: A HANDBOOK FOR SOUTHERN AFRICA
Synthesis report. INGC Climate Change Report: Study on the impact of climate change on disaster risk in Mozambique
Mozambique has a coastline of almost 2,700km. Approximately 20.5 million people, more than 60% of the total population, live in coastal areas. In many places this consists of lowlands with sandy beaches, estuaries and mangroves. Survival and everyday life in these areas depends to a large extent on local resources, such as rain-fed farming and fishing, whilst infrastructure is weak or even non-existent. These conditions mean a high vulnerability of both people and landscape to tropical cyclones and sea level rise (Mavume, 2009). Of particular concern is the tendency for people to migrate to the coastal zone, thus placing more people, infrastructure and services at risk.

N/A
Climate change is an unavoidable challenge that society will have to deal with over coming decades. For developing countries, the task is particularly daunting. The process of adapting to new conditions, stresses and natural hazards that result from climate change will require additional interventions. Although most communities have some ability to respond to changes and extreme climatic events, the expected impacts of climate change will exceed this capacity almost in all cases.

Decision-making for climate resilient livelihoods and risk reduction: A Participatory Scenario Planning approach
CARE International & ALP
2012
CARE
N/A
Changes in rainfall amounts and seasonal patterns are already being experienced in many parts of the world, including Sub-Saharan Africa, creating problems for vulnerable farmers and other land users in securing their livelihoods, and increasing the risks they face. The frequency and intensity of extreme climatic events such as heat waves and erratic heavy rainfalli, as well as the long term chronic effects of higher temperatures are set to increase. The effects of these climatic changes will become even more pronounced in the futureii, particularly in Sub-Saharan Africa where livelihoods and ecosystems are highly sensitive to changes in climate.

Understanding vulnerability of coastal communities to climate change related risks
DOLAN, A. & WALKER, I.
2003
Journal of Coastal Research
N/A
This paper discusses the concept of vulnerability as characterized in the climate change literature and presents a framework for assessing adaptive capacity. The framework recognizes inherent susceptibilities of humanenvironment systems exposed to climate variability and change. As climate change impacts are unevenly distributed among and within nations, regions, communities and individuals due to differential exposures and vulnerabilities, the framework highlights determinants of adaptive capacity at the local scale and situates them within larger regional, national and international settings.

Mt Namuli at 2419 m is the high point of a massif and associated granite peaks situated near Gurué town, Zambézia Province in north-central Mozambique, and the second-highest peak in the country. It is surrounded at lower altitudes by extensive tea plantations, now being rehabilitated, and has perhaps the best agro-ecological conditions in the country. Increasingly, people are settling in the area and slowly encroaching up the slopes. Although recognised for many years as being of particular biological interest, Namuli is not formally protected, is little-explored and the conservation threats to its biodiversity have not yet been properly documented.

The fisheries sector in Mozambique accounts for about 4% of GDP and 28% of foreign exchange earnings. It is estimated that the population derive 50% of their animal protein intake from fish and fish products (current per capita consumption of fish at 6.9 kg per annum). This figure is significantly increased along the coastal zone where fishing communities rely mostly on daily fish catch for subsistence and animal protein input. The sector provides employment to over 100,000 people as primary activity, and over more than three to four times this number in supporting services.

Traditionally, along the northern coast Mozambique, men and women go their separate ways each morning. Husbands head out to sea, casting nets and fishing lines into the Indian Ocean. Wives trudge inland and work small family farms called machambas. But in recent years, fish catches have plummeted, the result of overfishing and a reef ailing in waters warmed by climate change.

http://oo.adu.org.za/content.php?id=4
Within the park borders, 11 plant communities have been identified, which can be broadly grouped into five major landscape types, viz. wetland, grassland, Mopane, sandveld and Androstachys landscapes. These landscapes support a wealth of bird species, with 318 species being confirmed in the park to date and many additional species believed to still occur in the park. Of the species recorded to date, 76 are significant range expansions for southern Mozambique, six species were previously subject to confirmation from southern Mozambique, two species have not previously been recorded from southern Mozambique and nine species are considered to be regionally or globally threatened.

Causes and Consequences of Displacement Decision-making in BNP
In the case of displacement decision-making in Banhine National Park (BNP), Mozambique, district-level government offi cials promoted the displacement of BNP-area residents and their resettlement into villages outside the park in a manner that was inconsistent with the World Bank safeguard policy. The decision to displace park residents was infl uenced by communication and capacity challenges, pressures for political decentralisation, the local-level operationalisation of international poverty reduction and development agendas, and a national-level agenda to concentrate or villagise dispersed rural populations.

• Extensive surveys revealed small but critical populations of large predators including cheetah, lion and endangered African wild dog in Banhine National Park. • Importantly, there are large tracts of habitat with little human impact and no livestock. • Based on these preliminary results, we strongly believe that Banhine could be restored. • We recommend the formulation of a Park Development Plan. • It is crucial that conservation corridors that permit dispersal for threatened predators are secured. • To assist with the park development and corridor planning process, we are providing preliminary information on critical predator areas and wild ungulate occurrence.

N/A
This paper presents a comprehensive annotated bibliography of the most contemporary and seminal vulnerability methodologies from over the past decade, focusing particularly on vulnerability to climate change in the fisheries and aquaculture sector. The bibliography was developed as a background paper for an international expert workshop in Namibia in 2013 on climate change vulnerability methodologies, coordinated by FAO. A significant degree of confusion and debate surrounds vulnerability assessments and the methods through which vulnerability should be measured in order to provide an accurate assessment that can feed into effective polices and strategies for adaptation and vulnerability reduction.

A review of historical trends in the distribution and abundance of elephants Loxodonta africana in Mozambique
Ntumi et al
2009
N/A
The elephant Loxodonta africana population of Mozambique has declined rapidly over the last 4 decades. Historical census data are incomplete but suggest that the impact of human activity on the elephant population increased after the onset of the colonial era. Demand for ivory explains the population decline from 1700 to 1940, and the killing of elephants as part of settlement policies and tsetse fly control programmes further reduced the populations between 1940 and 1960. Land transformation from 1900 onwards may also have contributed to the historical decline in elephant numbers. Our assessment suggests that landscape approaches should be explored in seeking to conserve elephants in modern Mozambique.

A recent inventory of the bats of Mozambique with documentation of seven new species for the country
The bat fauna of Mozambique is poorly documented. We conducted a series of inventories across the country between 2005 and 2009, resulting in the identification of 50 species from 41 sites. Of these, seven species represent new national records that increase the country total to 67 species. These data include results from the first detailed surveys across northern Mozambique, over an area representing almost 50% of the country. We detail information on new distribution records and measurements of these specimens. Furthermore, we also present some notes on taxonomy, ecology and echolocation calls. Finally, we combine modeled distributions to present predicted species richness across the country.

Private enterprises are active in conservation initiatives in Africa. Some of these enterprises have long-term licences for the development of conservation areas. The motivation of these organisations to participate in conservation is ultimately determined by the economic output of their activities. An electric fence is being constructed in the Maputo Elephant Reserve, Mozambique. A costs-benefit analysis was carried out, in order to assist in the optimisation of the management activities of the elephant population, based on elephant population size, fence costs, crop raid costs, elephant poaching, and benefits derived from tourism (game-viewing and hunting).

N/A
The Western Indian Ocean, in common with the rest of the world’s oceans, is facing increasing pressure on the marine and coastal resources, and increasing degradation of critical habitats. In particular, the nearshore and coastal ecosystems are under tremendous stress. There are many causes for this decline, including over-fishing, use of inappropriate fishing technologies, insensitive tourism operations, extraction of corals and coral sand for construction, and clearance of mangroves for mariculture and just for better views!

Taxonomy And Historical Zoogeography Of The Red Squirrel, Paraxerus palliatus (peters, 1852). In the Southern african subregion (rodentia: sciuridae)
Viljoen, S.
1989
N/A
The inter- and intraspecific classification of the red squirrel, Paraxerus palliatus (Peters, 1852) is reviewed. Paraxerus Forsyth Major, 1893, is considered a valid genus with two species, P. cepapi (A. Smith, 1836) and P. palliatus, within the Southern African subregion. P. pa/liatus is represented by four subspecies, 1) P. p, omatus (Gray, 1864), 2) P. p. bridgemani Dollman, 1914, with tongensis Roberts, 1931, and auriventris Roberts, 1926, as synonyms; 3) P. p. swynnertoni (Wroughton, 1908), and 4) P. p, sponsus (Thomas & Wroughton, 1908).

As part of a long-term monitoring project studying coastal development, a number of rapid scan field surveys and project interventions were conducted in Ponta do Ouro, at the southern border of Mozambique. Here we report on four issues in support of sustainable development: 1. Tourism, 2. Water supplies, 3. Biodiversity and 4. Governance. In our tourism study, we interviewed tourists and managers, and placed a researcher as an intern in a beach camp to assess management and interactions.
