Geological map of the Cape Peninsula and False Bay Geological section of the Cape Peninsula and False Bay. Cape Town lies at the south-western corner of the continent of Africa. It is bounded to the south and west by the Atlantic Ocean, and to the north and east by various other municipalities in the Western Cape province of South Africa.
CAPE exists within the conditionally unstable layer of the troposphere, the free convective layer (FCL), where an ascending air parcel is warmer than the ambient air. CAPE is measured in joules per kilogram of air (J/kg). Any value greater than 0 J/kg indicates instability and an increasing possibility of thunderstorms and hail.
Gravity does not physically exhibit any dipole character and so the integral characterizing n = 1 must be zero. The different coefficients J n , C n m , S n m , are then given the values for which the best possible agreement between the computed and the observed spacecraft orbits is obtained.
Woodhead Dam is a dam on Table Mountain, Western Cape, South Africa.It was built in 1897 and supplies water to Cape Town.The dam, which was the first large masonry dam in South Africa, was designated as an International Historic Civil Engineering Landmark by the American Society of Civil Engineers in 2008.
A gravity dam is a dam constructed from concrete or stone masonry and designed to hold back water by using only the weight of the material and its resistance against the foundation. Gravity dams are designed so that each section of the dam is stable and independent of any other dam section.

An amortization calculator is used to determine the periodic payment amount due on a loan (typically a mortgage), based on the amortization process.. The amortization repayment model factors varying amounts of both interest and principal into every installment, though the total amount of each payment is the same.
The Cape Town water crisis in South Africa was a multi-year period in 2015–2020 of water shortage in the Western Cape region, most notably affecting the City of Cape Town. Dam water levels began decreasing in 2015 and the Cape Town water crisis peaked during mid-2017 to mid-2018 when water levels hovered between 14 and 29 percent of total dam ...
