Abstract: The coast is the most dynamic part of Earth’s surface due to its strategic position at interface land and sea. It is, therefore, exposed hazards specific risks because geography as well geological environmental characteristics different countries. coastal environment essentially evolving in time space, marked by waves, tides, seasons; moreover, it subjected many marine continental processes (forcing). This succession events significantly influences frequency severity hazards....
This study was conducted on Manoka Island (Littoral Region of Cameroon) with the aim analyzing climate change vulnerability and local adaptation strategies based community's perceptions biophysical evidence. We used household surveys, focus group discussions, field observation, GIS, remote sensing to collect data variables exposure, sensitivity, adaptive capacity. Historical changes in rainfall temperature, mangrove cover, occurrence extreme climatic events were as indicators exposure....
Cet article examine les facteurs de production des risques dits « naturels » dans grandes villes du Cameroun. D’une approche historique, il ressort que l’établissement d’agglomérations sites d’aménagement difficile est à la base problème. Le manque ressources ainsi forte croissance démographique qui caractérisent pays moins avancés (PMA) en général et le Cameroun particulier sont point vue anthropique causes sensibilité aux naturels. Il se pose aussi problème l’ambiguïté système foncier...
For more than four decades, the Gulf of Guinea’s coasts have been undergoing a significant phenomenon erosion, resulting from pressures both anthropogenic and marine weather forcings. From West Africa (Senegal, Ivory Coast, Ghana, Benin, Togo, Nigeria) to those Central (Gabon, Equatorial Guinea, Cameroon), has growing for decades. The southern Cameroonian coastline Kribi Campo become scene environmental dynamics that render it vulnerable coastal which appears be major hazard this territory...
La région de l'Est Cameroun concentre la grande part ressources minières prouvées et potentielles du pays. Elle est actuellement le principal foyer l'extraction minière notamment dans commune Bétaré-Oya. Cette activité s'est accentuée dès 2007 avec l'« opération sauvegarde l'or » lancée par ministère des Mines en prévision mise eau barrage hydroélectrique Lom-Pangar. Cependant, les mutations environnementales que activités induisent remettent question perspectives développement à long terme...

Urban heat islands (UHIs) represent a significant manifestation of climate change impacting cities globally. In African coastal cities, often situated in low-lying areas with stagnant air, rapid demographic growth, and irreversible land-use changes, the proliferation poses considerable risks to vulnerable urban populations. Notable experiencing this phenomenon include Lagos (Nigeria), Cairo (Egypt), Johannesburg (South Africa), Nairobi (Kenya), Dakar (Senegal). This study investigates...
Abstract. Mining practices in Cameroon began since the colonial period. The artisanal mining sector before independence contributed to 11–20 % of GDP. From 2000, rich potential Cameroonian subsoil attract many foreign investors with over 600 research and permits already granted during last decade. But, forests also have a long history from period pre-sent. However, activities forest environments are governed by two different legal frameworks, including code i.e. Law No. 001 16 April 2001...
L’objectif de la recherche synthetisee dans cet article a ete lever un coin du voile sur le sujet croissance spatiale Kinshasa. Sur plan methodologique, nous sommes partis postulat que les techniques teledetection et l’analyse peuvent contribuer ameliorer connaissances l’evolution des villes qui, l’instar Kinshasa, sont en soutenue. Le travail consiste spatio-temporelle l’agglomeration morphologique Kinshasa entre 1979 2015. Pour cette analyse, donnees issues ont integrees une demarche...
La question du paysage préoccupe plusieurs disciplines : sociologie, anthropologie et géographie, etc. Elle a inspiré des auteurs l’ayant analysé suivant les colorations disciplinaires. En le est convoqué pour décrire comprendre dynamiques spatiales ; dans ce cas, zones côtières qui, de par leur situation, sont au centre multiples enjeux sujettes à d’importantes modifications. On y note une fragilisation considérable dont principaux acteurs agro-industrielles l’urbanisation. C’est cas Kribi....
