Author:Engelbrecht, CJ; Landman, WADate:Oct 2014The influence of cut-off low (COL) associated rainfall on interannual rainfall variability over the Cape south coast region of South Africa for the period 1979-2011 is investigated. COLs are objectively identified and tracked on daily average ...Read more
Author:Nkoana, R; Engelbrecht, FA; Marean, CWDate:Sep 2015Reconstructing the glacial maximum climates of the Cape south coast region of South Africa is important within the context of understanding the evolution of modern humans in this region. Simulating the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) climate was ...Read more
Author:Engelbrecht, CJ; Landman, WA; Engelbrecht, FADate:Sep 2013A synoptic decomposition of rainfall over the Cape south coast region for the period 1979-2011 is presented. This decomposition is achieved by considering the average daily low-level circulation to develop a synoptic climatology, using a Self ...Read more
