Includes bibliographical references (p. 321-356). Southern Africa’s landscape is characterised by a high plateau (elevation > 1,000 m) bound by escarpments and extensional continental margins, and the region has been influential in the development of geomorphological theory. However, the evolution of this landscape in response to tectonic and climatic forcing remains poorly understood, and is investigated here though an analysis of the topography and surface exposure history of early Jurassic (~183 Ma) Karoo dolerites. 2015-01-07T13:37:55Z 2015-01-07T13:37:55Z 2010 Doctoral Thesis Doctoral PhD http://hdl.handle.net/11427/11706 eng application/pdf Department of Geological Sciences Faculty of Science University of Cape Town |
