dc.descriptionOpen access via the Springer Compact Agreement This research was funded by the UK Natural Environment Research Council NERC Urgency grant NE/R002568/1 (PULA Project). Acknowledgments The authors would like to thank the Editor and two anonymous reviewers for their comments and suggestions which have contributed to improve the quality of this paper. The authors would like to thank all the BIUST students that took part in one or more field campaigns in the Notwane river catchment; their work and interests were remarkable. Thanks are due to Trust Manyiwa (BIUST) for the assistance with grain size and OM analyses and to Serwalo M. Mokgosi (BIUST) for assistance with the MP-AES measurements of sediment materials. We would like to thank the staff at the University of Aberdeen laboratory (Michael McGibbon) for assistance with the water quality analyses.en
