  • Spatial Pattern of Housing Quality in Abuja, Nigeria
    International Journal of Coal, Geology and Mining Research Vol.2, No.1, pp.1-20, May 2020 Published by European Centre for Research Training and Development UK(www.eajournals.org) SPATIAL PATTERN OF HOUSING QUALITY IN ABUJA, NIGERIA Saliman Dauda Department of Urban and Regional Planning, Baze University, Abuja, Nigeria ABSTRACT: The study attempted evaluation of Spatial Pattern of Housing Quality of Abuja, Nigeria. The identified 62 political wards were stratified into their various Area Councils namely, Abuja Municipal Area Council (AMAC), Bwari Area Council, Gwagwalada Area Council, KwaliArea Council, Kuje Area Council and Abaji Area Council. Using systematic random sampling, 3593, 1002,641,290,341 and 202 houses were selected in AMAC, Bwari Area Council, Gwagwalada Area Council, Kwali Area Council, Kuje Area Council and Abaji Area Council respectively to give a total of 6069 houses. Socioeconomic characteristics of the households revealed that the youth constituted 14.2% of the respondents, while 79.99% of the respondents were also found to be in the age bracket of 31-60 years. Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) confirmed, that there were significant differences in the age distribution of the residents (F = 4.11, p = 0.005). Analysis of spatial pattern of housing quality using Factor Analysis revealed that housing location quality attributes factor, recorded highest influence on the spatial pattern of housing quality in Area Councils, such as AMAC, Bwari Area Council and Gwagwalada Area Council. The study concluded that a general hierarchical trend in spatial pattern of housing quality had been figured out in Abuja, where housing quality was observed to decrease with increase in distance from the Central Business District(CBD).

The study estimated, investigated and examined trees species and avian frugivore in terms of their diversity. Point-Centered Quarter Method (PCQM) was used for vegetation analysis while random walk and focal observation was used for bird frugivore identification and enumeration. data was collected from six locations coinciding with the local administrative areas within the Federal Capital Territory. These were, the Abuja Municipal Area Council (AMAC), Abaji, Bwari, Gwagwalada, Kuje and Kwali. AMAC is designated as urban while the remaining five sites are designated as sub-urban. The highest number of fruit tree species was encountered in AMAC (30), followed by Abaji (29) while 27, 25, 19 and 11 fruit tree species were encountered in Kwali, Bwari Gwagwalada and Kuje respectively. The similarity or otherwise dissimilarity in fruit tree species composition between each pair of the enumerated sites showed Gwagwalada and Kuje as the most similar, and the similarity or otherwise dissimilarity in frugivorous bird species composition between each pair of the enumerated showed higher species similarity between the AMAC and each of the other sites, and between each pair of the sites than that of the fruit trees in the respective sites.

Findings of the study shows that all geography and biology science teachers from the studied schools affirmed to changes in climate/ The main indicators of climate change as observed by the teachers are temperature rise, decrease in rainfall, drier weather, decline in domestic water supply, incapacitation of crop production, de-vegetation, decline of pastures for livestock production thereby instigated conflicts between headers and farmers and rural-urban migration. Reforestation, afforestation, cultivating drought tolerant crops, encouraging irrigation/fadama farming in localities, improve in water usage, shortening growing season by cultivation varieties that matured within a short period of time and indebt dissemination of information on potential weather incidences/events/disasters where seen as strategies of combating climate change impacts as opined by the teachers.

Department of Geography, Federal University of Technology, Minna, Nigeria *Emails of the corresponding authors : [email protected] ; [email protected] Abstract This study highlights the increasing interest in identifying the parameters adequate to measure rainfall and wet day’s variations as the determinant of malaria occurrences and distribution for a period of twelve months (2012) in the Federal Capital Territory. Satellite data were developed to identify malaria risk area and to evaluate amounts of rainfall and the durations of wet or rainy days conducive to malaria outbreaks at appropriate scales. Secondly, the studies examine the correlation of monthly and annual malaria cases, and rainfall amounts, including wet days with a lag time of one year. The result of correlation analysis shows that relationship exists between the observed weather variables and malaria. The coefficients of determination R2 of rainfall influencing malaria is 0.3109 (31.1%) and wet days influencing malaria is 0.3920 (39.2%).

Accepted 17�� March, 2012 capacity point, when a condition known as the optimum Abstract moisture content for compaction is reached. ⁽⁴,¹⁴⁾ The proper estimation of soil moisture content is a fundamental Soil compaction can be explained using basic properties of soil. issue as well in food security research, land management Cohesive soil sample were collected from five major region of the systems, pollution detection, nutrient flows, (wild-)fire main site of investigation. Unlike other method of analyzing soil compaction, temperature deviation curves were used as the detection, (desert) locust and carbon balance modeling.⁽⁴⁾ determinant for testing for compaction. It was discovered also that Soil moisture content is one of the prime environmental the temperature deviation curves can be used to find the annual variables related to land surface climatology, hydrology amplitude of the surface soil temperatures. Soils in Abuja displayed and ecology. It has been discovered that plastic flow some degree of compaction except for Gwagwalada that showed contributes to the complete destruction of soil structure negligible compaction.
