Abstract

Purpose Sediment pressures can be increased by transformed landscape connectivity in catchments worldwide. The upper Thina catchment, an important high rainfall water resource in the northern Eastern Cape, South Africa, is used to explore how ongoing subsistence farming on communal land (overgrazing and trampling) has initiated large erosive features and increased sediment loads.
