Eastern Cape Climate Watch, led by Prof. Alastair Potts of Nelson Mandela University’s Botany Department, aims to understand Eastern Cape’s climate patterns using the priceless rainfall data recorded over decades by local farmers forming the basis of the project. The project gathers and curates long-term rainfall records to uncover long-term trends. Starting with a few weather stations, the goal is to expand coverage over time.
