When Dr Adriaan van der Walt registered for his PhD by publication in 2017, he was undertaking to complete his first degree in English. Until then he had only studied, and published academic research, in Afrikaans. As you can tell from his title, he was successful. So successful, indeed, that he passed with very minor revisions, and published four papers from his PhD. Adriaan is currently working as a Senior Lecturer in the Department of Geography at the University of the Free State, serves on the editorial board of the International Journal of Biometeorology, and is the mentee Associate Editor: Earth and Environment for the South African Journal of Science. He has published in some of the top local and international journals, including the South African Journal of Science, the South African Geographical Journal, Theoretical and Applied Climatology and the International Journal of Climatology
