Abstract There is unequivocal evidence that anthropogenic climate change supercharging temperature and precipitation regimes globally. One of the clearest signals this seen in current projected increases extreme heat, understood as changes maximums, longer duration heatwaves, higher night‐time temperatures. Extreme heat has substantial impacts on socio‐ecological systems through direct human health labor productivity, crop yields water security; second‐order infrastructure functioning hazards (e.g., increased fire drought incidence). These are differentiated mediated by preexisting vulnerabilities based who you are, what do, where live, your capacities to prepare for, prevent, cope with adapt exposure. Nowhere these increasing more visible than populous, rapidly urbanizing regions. Governments across world piloting implementing management strategies, which variously called heat‐health plans, action resilience so forth. We argue such actions policy agendas can benefit from theoretical advances vulnerability adaptation literature. synthesize five highlight need for suites sequenced pathways sensitive trade‐offs, center equity a normative goal effective adaptation, acknowledge uncertainty differential vulnerabilities, leverage lessons participatory adpatation planning, forward‐looking preparatory actions. consolidate develop an approach inform urban risk management.

Spatiotemporal Dynamics of Urban Green Spaces and Climatic Vulnerability of Togolese Cities in the Context of Rapid Urbanisation: The Case of Lome and Kara

Land, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 14(3), С. 471 - 471

Опубликована: Фев. 25, 2025

In Togo, the cities of Lomé and Kara are undergoing rapid urbanisation driven by strong population growth expansion urban built-up areas, leading to significant reductions in green spaces (UGSs). UGSs vital for climate regulation human well-being mitigating heat, improving air quality, supporting mental health. This directly replaces vegetated areas with impervious surfaces, diminishing UGS their associated ecosystem services. Consequently, climatic vulnerability has increased, highlighting need sustainable development conservation. study examines spatiotemporal dynamics using Landsat imagery from 1988, 2000, 2012, 2022, applying a supervised image classification approach maximum likelihood algorithm. Post-classification change detection quantified loss. Additionally, models 2060, 2100 were developed Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSP 2.45 SSP 5.85) multifactorial modelling approach. The results reveal decline 85.98% 40.78% 93.99% 36.68% between 1988 primarily due urbanisation. Vulnerable zones, currently UGSs, risk disappearance 2060–2100, exacerbating risks. Urgent measures needed, including conservation policies, creation, community awareness promote sustainability.
