The impact of land use cover (LULC) change and climate variability on water resources poses as a major threat in semi-arid environments, especially the sub-Saharan Africa. Countries Africa are vulnerable to scarcity. Hence, there is an urgent need for understanding various methods LULC assessment, aid management at scales. Various studies have modelled assessed effect hydrological responses, using different approaches. In this regard, paper provides detailed review progress remote sensing...
Abstract The Environmental Impact Classification for Alien Taxa (EICAT) is an important tool biological invasion policy and management has been adopted as International Union Conservation of Nature (IUCN) standard to measure the severity environmental impacts caused by organisms living outside their native ranges. EICAT already incorporated into some national local decision‐making procedures, making it a particularly relevant resource addressing impact non‐native species. Recently,...
Many species have been intentionally introduced to new regions for their benefits. Some of these alien cause damage, others do not (or at least yet). There are several approaches address this problem: prohibit taxa that will try limit damages while preserving benefits, or promote safe. In the present article, we unpack safe list approach, which define as "a region interest considered sufficiently low risk invasion and impact can be widely used without concerns negative impacts." We discuss...
