Evaluation des ressources en eau du bassin de la Volta. In French
Le projet « WISE UP to climate » vise a demontrer l'utilite des infrastructures naturelles comme une « solution basee sur la nature » pour l'adaptation au changement climatique et le developpement durable. Dans le bassin de la Volta, les infrastructures naturelles, comme les construites, offrent des benefices pour la subsistance des personnes. Comprendre les interrelations entre ces deux types d'infrastructures est une condition indispensable a une gestion et un developpement durables des ressources en eau. Cela est particulierement vrai dans un contexte ou les pressions sur les ressources en eau s'intensifient, et ou les impacts du changement climatique augmentent. Ce rapport donne un apercu des caracteristiques biophysiques, des services ecosystemiques, et de leur relation avec les moyens de subsistance dans le bassin.
Appraisal of Water Resources for Effective and Sustainable Management
Freshwater scarcity is caused by a long history of poor management of water resources. Typically, humans simultaneously use the same limited water resource for multiple purposes without considering the cumulative impact on this resource. This book elucidates the chemical health status of the Volta Lake ecosystem within the framework of changes in chemical parameters as potential indicators of pollution to ensure the appropriate management of the lake to satisfy the changing demand placed on the lake, safeguard the quality of life of its users, protect its ecosystem and preserve it for future generations. This book adopts an integrated approach to address the general chemical health status of the lake for ecosystem sustainability as well as its trophic state and primary productivity to significantly inform future research needs and approaches for effective and sustainable management.
Systems Thinking for Sustainable Development
This book presents a systems thinking approach in relation to the Sustainable Development Goals for sustainable national development in vulnerable countries. Systems thinking is a process for understanding the interrelationships among the key components of a system; this book illustrates sustainable development as a system. Key environmental issues are discussed showing their relationship to socioeconomic aspects of development, in the light of increased climate threats and environmental disasters.
Water Matters
Water Matters: Achieving the Sustainable Development Goals presents a compilation of water scenarios and their relationship to multiple facets of life, as water forms a nexus with food security and energy resources, thereby forming one of the fundamental pillars of sustainable development. The thematic topics focus on studies of achieving individual sustainable development goals, primarily on safe and sustainable drinking water availability, the role of water in sanitation, transboundary water, and water in the ecosystem. Each chapter presents a case study to enable a holistic review of the topic and provide insight for further research. Water Matters: Achieving the Sustainable Development G...
Agriculture and Ecosystem Resilience in Sub Saharan Africa
This volume discusses emerging contexts of agricultural and ecosystem resilience in Sub Saharan Africa, as well as contemporary technological advances that have influenced African livelihoods. In six sections, the book addresses the sustainable development goals to mitigate the negative impacts on agricultural productivity brought about by climate change in Africa. Some of the challenges assessed include soil degradation, land use changes, natural resource mismanagement, declining crop productivity, and economic stagnation. This book will be of interest to researchers, NGOs, and development organizations. Section 1 focuses on climate risk management in tropical Africa. Section 2 addresses th...
