Gouritz Ecological Processes - East West Mountain Corridor 2004 (gi_ew_mtn_corridor.shp)
Gouritz Initiative - Processes – East/West Mountain Corridor. Two large west-east corridors that stretch across the planning domain, linking the Swartberg and associated mountain chains in the North. The maintenance of continuous corridors along these mountain chains provides an east-west climatic gradient, ranging from winter rainfall in the west to summer rainfall in the east.
