Use of climate smart agriculture technologies in West Africa peri-urban Sahel in Niger.
Sci Rep

Department of Biology, Faculty of Sciences and Techniques (FST), Dan Dicko Dankoulodo University of Maradi, Maradi, Niger.
Climate change affects peri-urban agricultural systems. However, most studies on Climate-Smart Agriculture (CSA) often focused on climate-smart villages in the Sahel region. This study investigated peri-urban farming systems in West African Sahel cities.

Forest restoration has been a common practice to safeguard water quality and stream health but it is unclear to which extent and pace forest restoration recovers stream ecosystem structure and functions. Also, stream health might be affected by the forest restoration type and the quality of the interventions. Here, we sought to evaluate the recovery of stream habitat and water quality through forest restoration in catchments dominated by pasturelands, and explored the relationship between landscape structure and stream ecosystem recovery.

Urban green infrastructure (GI) plays a crucial role in improving air quality by removing pollutants and reducing emissions from structures. However, in Ethiopia, inadequate GI planning, largely due to limited awareness among planners and policymakers, can undermine the benefits of GI and worsen urban air quality issues. In this study, we demonstrate how the GI strategy approach can enhance air quality and assess the negative impacts of biogenic volatile organic compounds (BVOCs) emitted by certain tree species in Ethiopia, using Hawassa as a case study.

Article Synopsis
- * Findings show that the ratio of daytime to nighttime CO₂ emissions decreased significantly from the dry season to the wet season, suggesting that nighttime emissions contribute substantially to overall CO₂ estimates.
- * The research highlights the impact of eutrophication on CO₂ emissions, where increased algal growth raises daytime CO₂ uptake and nighttime emissions due to DOM breakdown, emphasizing the need to consider urban lakes and DOM dynamics in carbon cycling studies.
Food environment change on wild food consumption in rural Tanzania.
Food Secur
August 2024
University of Copenhagen, Copenhagen, Denmark.
In this longitudinal study we explore how changes in food environments have shaped the acquisition and consumption of wild foods among people living near forests. Our study conceptually improves food environment frameworks by including evidence on changes in wild food consumption. We used data collected in both the dry and rainy seasons in 2009 and 2021/2022 in four villages in the East Usambara Mountains, Tanzania.
