Includes bibliographical references. Lagrangian moisture source attribution model is developed in order to explore the regional moisture source dynamics of southern Africa. In particular, the model was developed in order to explore the role of the regional land surface as a source of moisture for regional precipitation. This work was prompted by previous studies suggesting that the land surface may play an important role in the regional climate system and particularly in the regional hydrological cycle. Existing moisture transport and source methodologies have a number of limitations. 2014-07-31T08:05:01Z 2014-07-31T08:05:01Z 2012 Doctoral Thesis Doctoral PhD http://hdl.handle.net/11427/4862 eng application/pdf Department of Environmental and Geographical Science Faculty of Science University of Cape Town |
