Download or read book Modeling Land use Change in the Volta Basin of Ghana written by Ademola K. Braimoh and published by Cuvillier Verlag. This book was released on 2004 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Land change studies in a 5,400km2 area within the Volta Basin of Ghana were carried out using satellite image and socio-economic analyses. The dominant change process was conversion of natural vegetation to cropland at an annual rate of 5%. Reversible land change trajectories involving accumulation of woody biomass indicate a certain level of rainfall-induced ecosystem resilience. Linear and logistic regressions identified agricultural land suitability, distance from main market and localities, child-dependency ratio and population density as the main drivers of change. Policy measures that would relieve human pressure on vegetation resources, guarantee food supply and promote commercialization of agriculture are suggested.
Download or read book The Impact of Bushfire on Carbon and Nutrient Stocks as Well as Albedo in the Savanna of Northern Ghana written by Thomas Torika Bagamsah and published by Cuvillier Verlag. This book was released on 2005 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bushfires are an important ecological factor in tropical savannas. This study assesses the role bushfires play with regard to the carbon and nutrient fluxes in the savanna ecosystem of northern Ghana. Long-term repeated bushfires lead to serious losses of nitrogen with subsequent land degradation and to the release of considerable amounts of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, which could affect the regional and even the global climate.

Download or read book Water Climate Change and the Boomerang Effect written by Larry Swatuk and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-07-27 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In line with COP21 agreements, state-led climate change mitigation and adaptation actions are being undertaken to transition to carbon-neutral, green economies. However, the capacity of many countries for action is limited and may result in a ‘boomerang effect’, defined as the unintended negative consequences of such policies and programmes on local communities and their negative feedbacks on the state. To avoid this effect, there is a need to understand the policy drivers, decision-making processes, and impacts of such action, in order to determine the ways and means of minimizing negative effects and maximizing mutually beneficial policy outcomes. This book directly engages the policy debates surrounding water resources and climate actions through both theoretical and comparative case studies. It develops the ‘boomerang effect’ concept and sets it in relation to other conceptual tools for understanding the mixed outcomes of state-led climate change action, for example ‘backdraft’ effect and ‘maldevelopment’. It also presents case studies illustrative of the consequences of ill-considered state-led policy in the water sector from around the world. These include Africa, China, South Asia, South America, the Middle East, Turkey and Vietnam, and examples of groundwater, hydropower development and forest hydrology, where there are often transboundary consequences of a state's policies and actions. In this way, the book adds empirical and theoretical insights to a still developing debate regarding the appropriate ways and means of combating climate change without undermining state and social development.
