Phillips Table of Contents Introduction 750 Reference 750 Index Map 750 Legend 752 Atlas section 760 749 S % 19 (2006) Introduction The core of this book is the vegetation map of the region which is the culmination of many years of work by many people. 18° 22° The vegetation units described become far more useful when they are made spatially explicit and the dimensions, distribution and shapes of each vegetation unit cannot adequately be described by text alone. Also the relationships between adjacent vegetation types as well as interdispersion patterns become clear through the device of the maps presented in this atlas. The atlas is presented here as a systematic series of A4 maps. These depict 435 of the vegetation types of our subcontinental region. Not depicted in this edition is AZm 1 Cape Kelp Beds that is described in the text. The map of the vegetation types of the subantarctic Marion and Prince Edward Islands is to be found in Chapter 15. The mapping in this chapter corresponds closely to the large 1:1 000 000 map sheets of Mucina et al. (2005) and is also printed at this convenient scale. In this atlas a grey outline to polygons has been added to help differentiation between adjacent vegetation units. The A4 map pages include an area of overlap at the edges with the maps on overleaf pages and contain navigational arrows to adjacent sections of the map. The series of maps is preceded by an index map to page numbers of the maps of the atlas, followed by the legend to the vegetation types with colours and codes of the vegetation types. Given the large number of colours required for the atlas, the codes provide the definitive identity of vegetation types. For convenience this legend is reprinted as a separate booklet in a sleeve within the back cover of the book. Geographical names as approved by the South African Geographical Names Council are as gazetted before 1 January 2005. A compact disc (CD) containing the electronic shape files of the map is placed in a sleeve within the front cover of the book. This CD also contains the software ArcReader suitable for viewing the map on computer. This is a particularly valuable and effective means of zooming in to view very small polygons and intricately divided vegetation types that are difficult to see on the printed maps. Some attributes are displayed when clicking on a polygon in the electronic map. These are Code used in the book, Name of the vegetation type, Conservation target, Percent of the vegetation type that is protected, Percent of the vegetation type that is unaltered, Conservation status and Protection status of the vegetation type, Area in square kilometres of the vegetation type, Area in square kilometres of the specific polygon, Code without space used on the map, Sort order (using numbers for biome, bioregion and vegetation type), Codes and names for biome, group and bioregion, and IDs for vegetation type, biome, group and bioregion used for linking data tables. 20° ORN TROPIC OF CAPRIC 24° NAMI BIA 781 780 26° 28° 772 UPING 773 774 NORTHER 30° 765 766 767 32° The maps of biomes and bioregions at much less detailed scales are to be found in Chapter 3. AT Credits of work done are detailed in the individual major chapters (Chapters 4 to 14) and are therefore not repeated here.

Vernacular Terms Michael C. Rutherford, Ladislav Mucina, Leslie W. Powrie, Robert A. Ward and Freddie Ellis Introduction This glossary contains terms, abbreviations and very widely used vernacular names of plants specific to southern African botanical and geographical terminology, and it is aimed at university and other students and at interested southern African amateur biologists and nature lovers. Professional botanists will benefit from definitions of many of the nonbiological terms used in our book—especially those related to geology, soil, climate, GIS terminology and botanical terms not particularly familiar in South Africa, Lesotho and Swaziland. Some ‘endemic’ local terms such as those related to landscape (koppie, donga etc.) and biota (bushveld, strandveld etc.) are included. Almost all terms have been extracted from the text of this book. Many of the terms are referenced. Most soil terms and definitions relate to Van der Watt & Van Rooyen’s (1995) glossary. The terms not referenced are our original definitions. Anorthosite (geology) A coarse-grained plutonic igneous rock consisting of more than 90% plagioclase feldspar, the plagioclase being generally calcium-rich (Whitten & Brooks 1972). In South Africa, the Bushveld Igneous Complex contains many anorthosite layers formed by the cyclic fractional crystallisation from a gabbroic magma. Apedal (soil) Pertaining to a soil having no visible internal structure (after Low & Rebelo 1998). ARC/INFO® (GIS terminology) Name of software package made by Environmental Systems Research Institute, Redmund, California, for geographic information system (GIS) analysis. ARC/INFO is used worldwide by thousands of different organisations for handling, managing and analysing geographical information. Glossary ArcView® (GIS terminology) A geographic information system (GIS) software package made by Environmental Systems Research Institute with many of the features of ARC/INFO. Adamellite (geology) Type of granite containing a calciumbearing plagioclase and a potassium feldspar in roughly equal amounts (Whitten & Brooks 1972). Arenite (geology) A broad term describing detrital sedimentary rocks, typically sandstone, of a particle size between 1⁄16 mm and 2 mm (Whitten & Brooks 1972). Aeolian (soil) Wind-borne. Aeolian material is moved by wind rather than water or by decomposition of local rock. Most aeolian sand is of marine origin, although sand may be dispersed from some rivers by wind (modified after Low & Rebelo 1998). Argillaceous (geology) Pertaining to a group of detrital sedimentary rocks, including clays, shales, mudstones and siltstones. Two grades of particle size are recognised, namely silt (from 1⁄16 mm to 1⁄ 256 mm) and clay (less than 1⁄ 256 mm). The rocks are composed of clay minerals and finely divided quartz and carbonates (Whitten & Brooks 1972). Afromontane (biogeography) Pertaining to regions of high altitudes in the mountains of Africa. Sometimes used interchangeably with ‘afrotemperate’. Afrotemperate (biogeography) Pertaining to regions in Africa characterised by temperate climate, usually found at higher altitudes (East African mountains, Drakensberg). Agg. (taxonomy) Abbreviation of ‘aggregate’. A neutral taxonomic category designating a group of morphologically very similar plant taxa that are often confused, e.g. in field studies. In our book this term is used interchangeably with ‘complex’, another auxillary taxonomic category. Agrestal (vegetation) Pertaining to vegetation of weeds infesting arable land, synonymous with ‘segetal vegetation’. Alluvium (geology, soil) Sedimentary material found in regions fringing river courses and composed of detrital matter transported and deposited by the river. Amphibole (geology) Any of a class of rock-forming silicate and aluminosilicate minerals with fibrous or columnar crystals (Thompson 1995). Amphibolite (geology) A metamorphic rock composed mostly of amphibole minerals (Whitten & Brooks 1972). Andesite (geology) A fine-grained volcanic igneous rock of composition intermediate between basalt and rhyolite, characterised by the presence of oligoclase or andesine (both minerals with more sodium than calcium in their composition) plagioclase feldspar (after Whitten & Brooks 1972). Asteraceous (vegetation) Pertaining to vegetation dominated by members of the daisy family (Asteraceae or Compositae), e.g. asteraceous fynbos. Banded ironstone (geology) Also known as jaspilite; a banded rock composed of alternating layers of iron oxide and jasper, a red variety of chalcedony (cryptocrystalline variety of SiO2). These rocks are chemical sediments deposited due to increased oxygen contents of a body of water precipitating dissolved iron in a cyclic nature. Huge iron ore deposits are found in South Africa in the Banded Iron Formation (Transvaal Supergroup). Basalt (geology) Generally fine-grained dark-coloured volcanic igneous rock, composed primarily of calcic plagioclase and pyroxene, with or without olivine. Batholith (geology) Term applied to very large bodies of intrusive igneous rock and generally composed of many smaller plutons. The term is most commonly used to describe granitic bodies. Berg wind (climate) A katabatic (downslope and generally offshore) wind of especially the West and South Coast of South Africa, which is both hot and dry and therefore conducive to spread of fire (Low & Rebelo 1998). Biodiversity (biology) The sum of all taxa of animals, plants, fungi and micro-organisms as well as their communities in a region (modified after Low & Rebelo 1998). Glossary of Selected Scientific and Vernacular Terms 791 S % 19 (2006) Biome (biology) A broad ecological spatial unit representing major life zones of large natural areas, and defined mainly by vegetation structure, climate as well as major large-scale disturbance factors (such as fire) (after Low & Rebelo 1998). Biotite (geology) Dark-coloured tri-octahedral mica common in igneous and metamorphic rocks (Deer et al. 1992). Bog (soil) An area of swampy ground generally with a layer of organic matter (peat). Broken veld (geomorphology) A region characterised by rugged topography, preventing easy thoroughfare. The granitic landscapes of the Succulent Karoo are good examples (Low & Rebelo 1998). Bushveld (vegetation) A local regional term translated from the Afrikaans ‘bosveld’ and generally applied to various forms of savanna vegetation south of the miombo belts in southern Africa. In regional terms (Central Bushveld), used for the elevated plateaus between Pretoria in the south and Limpopo River in the north. Butt (geomorphology) Solitary, usually pointed hill with hard capping on the top, rising above surrounding flat landscape; often occurring in the Karoo. Often spelt ‘butte’ (from the French) and mainly applied in the western USA. C3 (plant physiology) A photosynthetic system in which Calvin Cycle photosynthesis occurs in both bundle sheath and mesophyll cells in the leaf. The name is derived from the initial fixing of CO2 in three-carbon chain compounds. C4 (plant physiology) A photosynthetic system in which the initial fixing of CO2 is via a four-carbon chain compound. These species have the Calvin Cycle photosynthesising cells concentrated around the vascular bundles (Kranz anatomy), whereas the cells elsewhere in the leaf specialise in absorbing CO2 from the atmosphere. C4 photosynthesis is more efficient than C3, at higher light intensities and higher temperatures, hence its prominence amongst grasses (and other plant species) in the warmer, summer-rainfall regions (after Low & Rebelo 1998). Calcareous (geology, soil) Pertaining to a soil or rock containing calcium carbonate, or related minerals, so that it effervesces (bubbles of CO2) when treated with acid. Usually formed from shells or chemical precipitation, these soils and rocks tend to have a coastal distribution (modified after Low & Rebelo 1998). Calcrete (geology) A rock formed in the soil profile at the water table when calcium carbonate accumulates and cements particles together to form a hard rock band (Low & Rebelo 1998). CAM Abbreviation of ‘Crassulacean Acid Metabolism’ (plant physiology). A photosynthetic system found in many succulent plants whereby carbon fixation takes place at night (as opposed to daylight in C3 and C4 plants) when lower temperatures reduce the rate of water loss during CO2 uptake through the stomata. A very strong form of CAM is referred to as CAM idling where stomata remain closed by day and night when there is an internal recycling of nocturnally refixed respiratory CO2 usually in response to severe stress due to limitations of water availability. CAM cycling is yet another (weak) form of CAM metabolism with C3 photosynthesis occurring throughout the light period (Lüttge 2004). Cambic B-horizon (soil) A subsurface horizon containing illuvial clay, humus, or amorphous sesquioides, but not in sufficiency to be classed as spodic or argillic. Cambisol (soil) Young soil with a cambic B-horizon and a A-B-C profile. Cambisols are typical in temperate or cooler regions, in 792 Glossary of Selected Scientific and Vernacular Terms which soils are either young or, depending on the climate, in which processes of soil formation occur slowly. Cape Floristic Region (CFR) (biogeography) One of 37 global floristic regions (phytochoria) as defined by Takhtajan (1986), often referred to as the Cape Floristic Kingdom (CFK) which is one of six global floristic kingdoms. Catena (soils) A related sequence of soil profile types created by changes from one drainage condition to another. These changes are usually transitional. Common example is from hilltop to valley bottom. CE (biogeography) Abbreviation of ‘Centre of Endemism’ (see also Van Wyk & Smith 2001). Chert (geology) Cryptocrystalline quartz of organic or inorganic origin. Also, the rock formed by the precipitation of this material, which can form bands or layers of nodules in sedimentary rocks (modified after Whitten & Brooks 1972). Chlorite (geology) Green, flaky mineral of variable composition that is a common alteration product of ferromagnesian minerals; structurally resembling the micas (Deer et al. 1992). Clastic (geology) Consisting of fragments of rock or of organic structures that have been moved individually from their places of origin (American Geological Institute 1976). Climax (vegetation) That vegetation type or plant community structure that occurs at the end of the seral cycle. The climax communities may not be the final end point of the succession: frequent or even rare events, such as fire, frost, harvesting, or hurricanes, may hold the communities in a stable subclimax indefinitely (Low & Rebelo 1998). Cobbles (geology) Generally rounded rock fragments with a diameter of between 64 mm and 256 mm, i.e. larger than a pebble and smaller than a boulder (Whitten & Brooks 1972). Conglomerate (geology) A sedimentary rock type consisting of rounded pebbles (> 2 mm) or small rocks cemented with sands, silts or clays into a solid rock (Low & Rebelo 1998). Coverage (GIS terminology) ARC/INFO data format of a digital spatial data set. Craton (geology) Old, rigid, stable block of continental crust consisting mostly of coarse crystalline granitic rocks. Southern African geology has been dominated by the Kaapvaal Craton which has remained largely unaffected by several orogenic events along its fringes for the past two and a half billion years. Cross-walk (analysis) A matrix table which usefully gives the degree of spatial correspondence between two mapped layers of information. A cross-walk represents one feature type as columns to compare with intersections with another feature represented as rows. Cupressoid (botany) Pertaining to plants with small, awlshaped leaves which clasp the stem, resembling those of a cypress (Low & Rebelo 1998). Datum (GIS terminology) A set of parameters and control points used to accurately define the three-dimensional shape of the earth (e.g. as a spheroid). The datum is the basis for a planar co-ordinate system. VEGMAP uses the internationally related Hartebeesthoek94 datum based on the World Geodetic System 1984 (WGS84) reference ellipsoid. This replaces the previously used Cape datum. DEAT (institution) Abbreviation of the national ‘Department of Environmental Affairs and Tourism’, a ministry of the Government of the Republic of South Africa. S % 19 (2006) Decimal degrees (geography) Degrees of latitude and longitude expressed in decimal format rather than in degrees, minutes and seconds. DEM (GIS terminology) See ‘Digital elevation model’. Diabase (geology) An ambiguous term used synonymously with dolerite. Other applications of the word are falling into disuse. Diamictite (geology) A conglomerate with relatively few clasts (pebbles), such that they are not touching and forming a supporting network. A matrix of finer material surrounds and supports the clasts (Boggs 1992). Glacial deposits are often diamictic. Digital elevation model (GIS terminology) Cell-based, common digital data of the shape of the earth’s surface (ESRI 2006). Digitising (GIS terminology) Transforming map features into digital form. Usually accomplished with a digitising tablet, or by creating a digital version and georectifying an image. Diorite (geology) A coarse-grained plutonic igneous rock of a composition intermediate between granite and gabbro. It is the plutonic equivalent of andesite. Dithionite (soil) As sodium dithionite (together with sodium bicarbonate and sodium citrate) an extracting reagent used for the determination of ‘free’ aluminium and iron in soils. Dolerite (geology) An igneous rock with fine to medium grains, consisting of equal quantities of the minerals feldspar and pyroxene. Chemically, it is the same as basalt and gabbro. During the Jurassic Period, enormous quantities of dolerite were injected into the Karoo Sequence deposits as vertical dykes and horizontal sills. Because of its resistance to erosion, dolerite dykes and sills have shaped many landscapes, especially the eastern Karoo (Low & Rebelo 1998). Dolomite (geology) A carbonate of calcium and magnesium, which only effervesces with dilute acid if powdered or heated. The Transvaal Supergroup comprises much dolomite, formed by chemical precipitation. Dolomite dissolves giving rise to sinkholes (as in Gauteng), but also stores water, giving rise to the ‘eyes’ (small lakes) in North-West Province (modified after Low & Rebelo 1998). Donga (geomorphology) Local term for deep, usually dry erosion trench or ravine. point that air-dry fragments will not slake in water or HCl; synonymous with ‘dorbank’.

Synonymous with dystric. Ecotone (vegetation) A zone in which two or more vegetation types or ecosystems merge. These areas may be rich in species from both systems, or may occur as species-poor fringes (Low & Rebelo 1998). Eluvial (soil) Pertaining to weathered material which is still at, or near, its point of formation (Whitten & Brooks 1972). Endemic (biogeography) Pertaining to a plant or animal species which is naturally restricted to a particular, well-defined region. This is not the same as the medical definition, which is ‘occurring naturally in a region’—it is thus often confused with indigenous (modified after Low & Rebelo 1998). Ephemeroid (botany) Referring to the life-form of a perennial plant that makes occasional appearances above-ground and maintains perennating organs underground (e.g. bulbous plants). Epiphyte (botany): A plant which grows on another plant, but which is not parasitic and uses the other plant only as a perch for better obtaining light or nutrients (Low & Rebelo 1998). Eutrophic (soil) Refers to soil that has suffered little or no leaching of the exchangeable basic cations (Ca, Mg, K and Na). Such soils are generally referred to as having a high base status. Feldspar (geology) A group of the most abundant minerals in the earth’s crust. Most can be classified as members of the simple ternary system albite–potassium feldspar–anorthite (after Deer et al. 1992). Ferricrete (geology) A rock formed in the soil profile at the water table when iron oxides accumulate around and cement grains together to form a gravelly or nodule-rich band. This may become impervious to water (compare ‘Duplex’). Also known as ‘ironpan’, ‘koffieklip’, ‘ouklip’ or ‘ngubane’ (modified after Low & Rebelo 1998). Dorbank (soil) A hard to extremely hard (silica-cemented) layer of soil. It occurs as a (usually reddish coloured) subsoil horizon in certain soils of arid regions. It does not slake in water but only in strong alkali. It is synonymous with the ‘duribank’ (or ‘duripan’) of other classification systems. Fjelfield (vegetation) Open-canopy, low vegetation composed of herbs, dwarf shrubs, mosses and lichens on shallow stony soils in the (sub)antractic and (sub)arctic regions. Also spelt fellfield. Doringveld (vegetation) Afrikaans term for vegetation (usually woodland) dominated by Acacia (for example Acacia karroo). Floristic (vegetation) Referring to the use of plant species composition (flora) as criterion for characterising or classifying vegetation. Duplex (soil) A soil type with a porous topsoil abruptly overlying a slowly permeable layer of soil, usually sand over clay. This does not apply to hardpan layers which form within a soil type due to cementing by iron oxides (ferricrete, laterite), silica (silcrete) or lime (calcrete) (after Low & Rebelo 1998). Duribank (soil) Synonymous with ‘dorbank’ or ‘duripan’. Duricrust (soil) A hard crust that formed near the land surface during the processes of weathering of rocks and during soil formation, usually in tropical or arid regions.

Fynbos (vegetation) The dominant vegetation of the Fynbos Biome, characterised by the presence of Restionaceae, and often with a high cover of ericoid shrubs in the families Ericaceae, Asteraceae, Rhamnaceae and Thymelaeaceae, and the common occurrence of Proteaceae. It occurs predominantly on nutrient-poor soils. Graminoid (botany) Pertaining to a herbaceous growth form characterised by a ‘grass-like’ appearance (tufted growth, usually long and narrow leaves, secondary root system) and including plants such as grasses, restios, sedges and rushes. Gabbro (geology) A dark, coarse-grained igneous rock, consisting of the mineral calcium-feldspar and crystals of the pyroxene group (olivine may be present). It is the plutonic equivalent of basalt and dolerite (modified after Low & Rebelo 1998). Geodatabase (GIS terminology) A logical collection of interrelated information managed and stored as a unit, usually on some form of mass storage system such as magnetic tape or disk.

Heuweltjie (geomorphology) Afrikaans term for a raised (sometimes very slightly) mound, about 10–35 m (but mostly S % 19 (2006) 20–30 m) in diameter, which occurs in the winter-rainfall areas of the western Northern Cape and Western Cape Provinces and usually at lower altitudes. These mounds are thought to have been formed by termites. With their higher calcium levels and more clayey soils, they often support distinctive plant communities. Also termed mima-like earth mounds (after Lovegrove & Siegfried 1989, Low & Rebelo 1998). Hyaloclastite deposits (geology) Deposits of glassy material formed by the eruption of magma (usually basaltic) in a subaqueous environment. This type of rock is most commonly formed at mid-ocean ridges (adapted from Davis & Clague 2003). Igneous (geology) A rock that forms by the intrusion of magma (plutonism) or the extrusion of lava (volcanism). Plutonic rocks are generally coarsely crystalline (such as granite and gabbro) whereas volcanic rocks are very fine-grained (basalt) or even glassy (rhyolite), although they can contain larger crystals formed at depth before eruption (common in andesite). The other major rock types are sedimentary (deposited by wind and water) and metamorphic (pre-existing rocks transformed by high pressure and temperature). Illuvial (soil) Referring to a zone of deposition of leached material in a soil or to a soil possessing such zone (modified after Whitten & Brooks 1972). Indigenous (botany) Occurring naturally in a defined area (contrast with endemic)—the area must be specified. Thus the baobab (Adansonia digitata) is indigenous and not endemic to South Africa, but it is not indigenous to KwaZulu-Natal (modified after Low & Rebelo 1998). Indurated (geology) Hardened. Induration is the process by which soft sediment becomes hard rock due to heat, pressure or cementation (after Whitten & Brooks 1972).

Kaolinite (geology) The most important mineral in the kaolinite group of clay minerals. It is a common product of the weathering of feldspar minerals. Karoo (geography) The arid parts of South Africa but as a geographical term it usually excludes the arid parts of the southern Kalahari and specific areas in the west such as Namaqualand and Richtersveld. However, in terms of biome nomenclature, Namaqualand and Richtersveld are linked to ‘Karoo’ through the Succulent Karoo Biome. Karstic (geomorphology) Pertaining to a landscape formed in limestone and dolomite areas characterised by sinkholes and caverns formed by rainwater and groundwater dissolving these carbonate rocks; named for the Karst region of Croatia (former Yugoslavia). KNP (conservation) Abbreviation of Kruger National Park. Koppie (geomorphology) Small hill or hillock, an Afrikaans term adopted by South African English. Lagoon (geomorphology) A stretch of coastal water body, more or less enclosed and separated from the sea by a barrier (usually sand dune cordon) (after Stiegerer 1976). Land Type (soil) Map unit denoting land, mappable at 1:250 000 scale, over which there is a marked uniformity of climate, terrain form and soil pattern. Late Glacial Maximum (LGM) (climate) A period during the latest glacial cycle approximately 18 000–20 000 years ago characterised by lower temperature (on average about 6°C lower than today) and drier climate in the eastern part of southern Africa. The winter-rainfall part of the region is supposed to have been wetter during the LGM than today. Laterite (geology) A residual deposit of hydrated iron oxides formed under special climatic conditions in tropical and subtropical climates by leaching of the rock by groundwater (after Whitten & Brooks 1972). Latosols (soil) A general term in tropical pedology for soils that have reached a fairly advanced stage of lateritic weathering (Soil Classification Working Group 1991). Leptosols (soil) A major group of soils described in the World Reference Base for Soil Resources. It defines shallow, stony or very stony soils overlying rock, partially altered rock or strongly calcareous material. Leucocratic (geology) Pertaining to igneous rocks consisting mainly of light-coloured minerals (quartz, feldspar, white micas etc.). Such rocks often appear dark in hand specimens, but the leucocratic nature is revealed in thin-section (Whitten & Brooks 1972). LGM (climate) See ‘Late Glacial Maximum’. Liana (botany) Plant with long dangling stems, with roots in the ground and leafy parts in the canopy, usually supported by the branches of trees (after Low & Rebelo 1998).

Map scale (geography) The reduction needed to display a representation of the earth’s surface on a map usually expressed as a fraction of the measure on the map over the equivalent measure on the earth’s surface (e.g. 1:50 000). A common error is to confuse the geographical terms ‘larger’ and ‘smaller’ scales. Large-scale maps such as 1:50 000 show great detail, whereas smaller scale maps such as 1:250 000 show few details but large areas, i.e. maps covering broader areas and usually with less detail are at a smaller scale. Glossary of Selected Scientific and Vernacular Terms 795 S % 19 (2006) Marula (ethnobotany) Adaptation of the Setswana and North Sotho ‘morula’ name, possibly via Afrikaans ‘maroela’, for Sclerocarya birrea (Anacardiaceae), popular native fruit tree, characteristic of many types of savanna vegetation in Africa. MAT (climate) See ‘Mean annual temperature’. Mean Annual Precipitation (MAP) (climate) Arithmetic mean of the precipitation at a locality over many years. Differs from median annual precipitation, which is the middle value of precipitation, with the number of years with higher precipitation equalling the number of years with lower precipitation. In southern Africa the number of years below average are more numerous than those above average (especially in areas of low rainfall), and therefore median annual precipitation is sometimes preferentially used to reduce risk in planning within precipitation-dependent enterprises such as farming (Schulze 1997). The median values thus provide some form of statistical expectation. Sometimes mean and median values are very similar. Mean Annual Temperature (MAT) (climate) The temperature of the whole year arithmetically averaged over many years at a locality. In South Africa, where hourly data are generally unavailable, MAT is approximated by averaging all the daily maximum and minimum temperature values of each year. In South Africa the error is always in the form of a small (typically around 0.5°C) overestimate. Temperatures are measured in well-ventilated shade (typically Stevenson screens) and at a height of 1.2 m above ground, which can greatly overestimate (i.e. less cold) winter minimum temperatures near the ground surface. Median Monthly Precipitation (climate) The middle value of precipitation for a given month from those of each year ranked from highest to lowest for a locality. Mean monthly precipitation values are frequently ‘inflated’ by a few heavy and extreme events (especially in dry regions) while the median values are more representative of expected conditions which are important for planning in enterprises such as farming (Schulze 1997). Sometimes mean and median values are very similar. Mekgacha (geomorphology) SeTswana word for ‘dry river canal’; similar to Herero ‘omuramba’, American ‘river wash’ or Arabic ‘waadi’. Melanocratic (geology) Pertaining to igneous rocks consisting mainly of dark minerals (Whitten & Brooks 1972). ‘Melanic’ means ‘dark’. Mesa (geomorphology) A flat-topped hillock or small mountain, formed for example by a hard sandstone sheet or dolerite sill capping that protects the underlying softer rock from erosion. Mesas and the smaller butts (sometimes eroded to a striking pinnacle) are typical of many Karoo landscapes (Low & Rebelo 1998). Mesic (soil, habitat) Intermediate between dry and wet in either climate or soil water characteristics (Low & Rebelo 1998).

Metadata for geographical data may include the source of the data, their creation date and format, their projection, scale, resolution, and accuracy, and their reliability with regard to some standard. Metadata consist of properties and documentation. Properties are derived from the data source, while documentation is entered by a person. By default, ArcCatalog automatically creates and updates metadata, which are stored as well-formed XML data in a file alongside the data or within a geodatabase. Metadata for a folder can also consist of a well-formed HTML file describing its contents (ESRI 2006). 796 Glossary of Selected Scientific and Vernacular Terms Metasediment (geology) Metamorphosed sedimentary rock.
