On the Temporal Dynamic of Land use Land Cover Changes over Lake Chad Basin, Nigeria[ ]


In the past 50 years, West Africa has experienced large scale land-use changes including deforestation and increased irrigation (Li et al., 2007). Such land-use changes may have both immediate and long-lasting impacts on terrestrial hydrology, altering the balance between rainfall and evaporation. This will have a considerable impact on water resources which must be accounted for in water management plans (Jia et al., 2006). In addition, ongoing climatic changes are likely to also be influencing the regional water resources.
