In the mining industry, most attention is focused on the large-scale sector, but in developing countries like Malawi, minerals are mainly extracted by the artisanal and small-scale sector. This means …

This study focused on analyzing and correlating the chemical composition of groundwater to aquifer lithology, in an area underlined by superficial (alluvial) deposits with subsurface extensions of Cretaceous Lupata sediments …

In this study, a crustal thickness model of the Malawi rift is created from the inversion of the EIGEN-6C4 global gravity model. The regularized inversion based on the Gauss- Newton …

Agricultural activities in Malawi depend largely on rainfall-fed. Rainfall onset is defined as the period, at the beginning of the rainy season, when rainfall distribution has become adequate for crop …

The world is probably facing the biggest crisis of climate change. Climate change has affected every nation especially African nations. Most of African nations including Malawi rely on rain fed …
