Zambezi Society
The biodiversity studies detailed in this report represent one component of the Zambezi Basin Wetlands Conservation and Resource Utilisation Project (ZBWCRUP), funded by CIDA and implemented by IUCN ROSA from 1996 to 2000. The ZBWCRUP project goal is "to conserve the wetland ecosystems of the Zambezi River Basin while facilitating their sustainable use". The major project objective to which these biodiversity studies relate is "to articulate the true value and importance of the functions, products and attributes of wetland ecosystems at local, national and regional levels".

Zambezi Society
Before considering the land use changes which have occurred in the Upper Zambezi wetlands during this century, we should look back further in time to consider the prehistory of human settlement on the plains. Although a series of Stone-Age settlements are known from the Victoria Falls (Clark 1970), none has yet been discovered in Western Province. The almost complete absence of surface rocks and the generally acid environment of the wetlands has resulted in a dearth of evidence of early human habitation.

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).

Gear selectivity for three by-catch species in the shallow-water shrimp trawl fishery at the Sofala Bank, Mozambique
Pinto, M.

Sofala
Institute for Fisheries Research
The reduction of shrimp by-catch when fishing with shrimp trawlers can constitute a strategy to minimise discards. A research cruise was conducted in February 1995 in shallow waters off Sofala Bank, Mozambique to investigate the sorting (selection) efficiency of cod-ends (55mm and 60mm meshes) compared to the top-grid (14mm space bar) systems using covered cod-end method. The selectivity parameters were obtained for Otolithes ruber, Johnius dussumieri and Thryssa vitrirostris through the maximum likelihood estimate (MLE) method, using logit function and pooled samples through the variance component model (VCM) . The top-grid was mounted at a theoretical angle of 33°, one metre aft of the retriever strap, in a downward direction.

Eyes on the Horizon
The ~ 85 km length of coastline between Morrumbene and Pomene appears to have the most concentrated artisanal shark fisheries in southern Mozambique (Inhambane to Maputo provinces), though the entire area from the Bazaruto Archipelago south to around Zavora is subject to relatively high fishing pressure. Bottom-set longlines may be the most commonly used gear. A range of elasmobranch species are taken within these fisheries. Carcharhinid sharks and Rhynchobatus guitarfish seem to be a major target.

Comunidades dehonianas no Norte e Centro de Moçambique. Possibilidades turísticas
Os dehonianos (nome porque são conhecidos os sacerdotes da Congregação do Coração de Jesus) instalaram-se no século passado entre os povos do norte e centro de Moçambique e ainda hoje subsistem, em missões abertas ao mundo, junto da população que guiam espiritualmente e ajudam comunitariamente. Mas os novos tempos trouxeram dificuldades financeiras, e os seus membros têm de encontrar formas de sustentar as suas atividades. O turismo pode ser a solução para as comunidades de Nampula, Alto-Molocué, Quelimane, Milevane e Gurué, nas províncias de Nampula e Zambézia. O objetivo geral é concluir se existem possibilidades turísticas nas comunidades dehonianas presentes no centro e norte de Moçambique, através de uma análise SWOT.

Resilient aquatic ecosystems not only play a crucial role in binding carbon, they are also important to economic development, food security, social wellbeing and provide important buffers against pollution, and extreme weather events. While mangroves support livelihoods of millions of people in the tropics, these blue carbon sinks also sequester about five times more carbon than any forest ecosystem. These ecosystems, however, are being degraded and disappear at rates 5–10 times faster than rainforests. The Zambezi mangroves have reduced in cover by 50% between 1972 and 2002, which is significant considering that the Delta has about 50% of the total mangrove cover in Mozambique.

Indigenous Fire Use to Manage Savanna Landscapes in Southern Mozambique

Fire Ecology
Prescribed burn regimes for protected areas in southern Africa are often based solely on modeling of historic data and onsite experimentation. Most rural communities in this region continue to rely on fire to manage natural resources for subsistence needs, yet relatively few detailed studies of local fire knowledge and practices exist. The long history of anthropogenic fire in southern Africa suggests that traditional ecological knowledge (TEK) of fire could provide further insight into location-specific anthropogenic contributions to fire-savanna interactions. This study used an ethnographic approach to investigate how local people think about and manage fire as part of their daily activities in two rural communities in southern Mozambique

N/A
This report basically intends to evaluate progress achieved in Mozambique to meet the MDGs and identify the main challenges and priorities for action at policy or implementation level to accelerate the achievement of the millennium goals. Though the MDGs aim at evaluating progress since 1990, in the case of Mozambique there is no comprehensive statistical (i.e., at national scale) and reliable information covering the initial years of the implementation of the MDGs. This is due to the armed conflict suffered by Mozambique until 1992. After the General Peace Agreement, Mozambique was able to start a more comprehensive and reliable statistical data collection process.

Tal como foi recomendado na política e estratégia de desenvolvimento turístico de Moçambique e, em particular, no Plano Estratégico para o Desenvolvimento do Turismo em Moçambique (2004-2013), é essencial ter em consideração que conservação e turismo têm de interagir para a potenciação de sinergias, porque, por um lado, o turismo é o gerador de receitas, mas, por outro lado, são as áreas de conservação que determinam a atracção de turistas. Estes factores, entre outros, levaram o Governo de Moçambique a identificar as Áreas de Conservação Transfronteiriças (ACTF) como Áreas Prioritárias para o Desenvolvimento de Turismo.

The Pungwe River Basin Joint Integrated Water Resources Management Strategy (IWRMS), the Pungwe Project in short, is a co-operative effort by the Governments of Zimbabwe and Mozambique to create a framework for the sustainable and equitable management, development and conservation of the water resources of the Pungwe River basin, with the objective of increasing the derived social and economic benefits for the people living in the basin. A key element in the development of this strategy by the Project lies in building capacity for its implementation and upgrading, to facilitate effective participatory management by both the authorities and stakeholders. The Pungwe River is in a shared watercourse between the two countries.

Environmental Flows and Restoration of the Zambezi Delta, Mozambique
The Ramsar Convention Secretariat was informed in 2008 of potential threats to Mozambique’s only Ramsar Site, the Marromeu Complex in the Zambezi Delta, from oil and gas prospecting activities. In 2009 the Government of Mozambique invited the Secretariat to activate the Ramsar Advisory Mission procedure in response. A team accordingly visited the site and undertook consultations there and at national, provincial and district level from 16-20 August 2009. This report summarises the Mission’s findings, and presents 24 recommendations for short- and long-term action, including suggestions for sources of further external support.
Vegetation, or communities of plants, form structural units – habitats – which, in many cases, determine what other organisms can live or feed in an area. Vegetation, through its species composition as well as structure, also provides an excellent integration of environmental factors in that it reflects the climatic, physiographic, edaphic and biotic features pertaining to the land where it grows (Timberlake et al. 1993). From this it can be seen that an understanding of the vegetation of an area – its composition, structure and distribution – is fundamental in assessing biodiversity.

This EBSA assesses the Zambezi river delta mangrove and adjacent brackish habitats. This is the single largest mangrove stand in the entire eastern Africa covering some 100,000 ha. The diversity is high (8 mangrove species) and trees can reach some 30 m and attain extensive diameters. Zambezi delta mangroves attain high carbon stocks turning this as an ideal place for developing C credits initiative. Changing in water hydrology associated also with the dam upstream, issues of sedimentation and erosion as associated with observed mangrove dieback are some of the main challenging issues for these exuberant habitats in the Zambezi river delta.

The Zambezi
Climate change is one of the most important and complex challenges facing the Zambezi River Basin, much as in the rest of the world. Projected changes in the earth's climate present more than just an environmental concern but also serious social and economic implications. While the riparian states of the Zambezi River Basin bear little responsibility for the build-up of carbon dioxide and other global warming gases in the earth's atmosphere, they stand to bear the brunt of the environmental, social and economic consequences of a warming climate. Southern Africa – in which the Zambezi Basin wholly lies – has been identified as one of the regions around the world most susceptible to the impacts of climate change.

I HAVE endeavoured in the following pages to give some account of that portion of the Zambezi, and of the lands washed by its all too shallow waters, which have fallen, in the partition of Africa, beneath the sovereignty of the Portuguese Crown. It is, of course, but a part of Africa's fourth greatest waterway ; but, since the lower Zambezi is at present the doorway through which we reach the slowly awakening colonies of Nyasaland and North- Eastern Rhodesia—and even the far-away basin of the mighty Congo—it is with that portion of the river we are at present most concerned, and it will no doubt continue to claim our attention until slowly developing railway enterprise shall one day bring the remoter stretches of the great river.

These areas are of the few remaining in Africa where you can still do a Classical African Safari today. They are part of the Marromeu Complex and boarder the Mighty Zambeze River in the North. The concessions are situated in the central part of Coastal Mozambique. The spectrum of wildlife is quite remarkable, having 22 huntable game species from the tiny Livingstone Suni to the Elephant. Buffalo roam the open flood plains and swamps in herds of several hundred and Sable in huge herds often nearing 100.
