Sobre IBD

This study examined the effects of climate change and its adaptation strategies on the inhabitants of the Niger delta region. The study utilised survey and ex-post facto designs in this study. Primary and secondary data were collected for the data analyses. The primary data were generated using questionnaire, while the secondary data were accessed from archival records of the Nigerian Meteorological Agency (NiMet) for the period 1925-2018 and Climate Research Unit (CRU) of University of East Anglia. The data were analyzed using one-way analysis ofvariance (ANOVA), multiple linear regressions (MLR), and the Welch and the Brown-Forsythe tests. The study revealed that the adaptation strategies applied at various localities in the region included improved seedling, climate insurance, restriction of settlements, improved forecast and information. The study recommended, intensifying the campaign on climate change and the consequences therefrom, intensifying the fight against air pollution, Community based approach to climate change management, such as public lectures, fines for defaulters and giving of climate change agricultural grants.

  • Water from a Transdisciplinary Perspective
    Ana Isabel Pereira Cardoso / Teresinha M. Gonçalves
    Life in cities has distanced human beings from nature and made it difficult to understand the ecology of life dependent on the environment. Urban water collection and distribution processes contribute significantly to the fragmentation of knowledge and the vital recognition of the water cycle. Without the effective participation of the subject in environmental actions, it is no...

  • Modeling Populations of Adaptive Individuals
    Bret C. Harvey / Steven F. Railsback
    Ecologists now recognize that the dynamics of populations, communities, and ecosystems are strongly affected by adaptive individual behaviors. Yet until now, we have lacked effective and flexible methods for modeling such dynamics. Traditional ecological models become impractical with the inclusion of behavior, and the optimization approaches of behavioral ecology cannot be use...

    Aaron Ellison / Aaron M. Ellison / Nicholas J. Gotelli
    A groundbreaking approach to scale and scaling in ecological theory and practiceScale is one of the most important concepts in ecology, yet researchers often find it difficult to find ecological systems that lend themselves to its study. Scaling in Ecology with a Model System synthesizes nearly three decades of research on the ecology of Sarracenia purpurea-the northern pitcher...

  • Physiological Ecology
    Carlos Martínez del Rio / William H. Karasov
    Unlocking the puzzle of how animals behave and how they interact with their environments is impossible without understanding the physiological processes that determine their use of food resources. But long overdue is a user-friendly introduction to the subject that systematically bridges the gap between physiology and ecology. Ecologists--for whom such knowledge can help clarif...
  • Critical Transitions in Nature and Society
    Marten Scheffer
    How do we explain the remarkably abrupt changes that sometimes occur in nature and society--and can we predict why and when they happen? This book offers a comprehensive introduction to critical transitions in complex systems--the radical changes that happen at tipping points when thresholds are passed. Marten Scheffer accessibly describes the dynamical systems theory behind cr...
