  • Gully Erosion Problems in Selected Areas of Edo State: Factors and Control
    Nigerian Journal of Environmental Sciences and Technology (NIJEST) www.nijest.com ISSN (Print): 2616-051X | ISSN (electronic): 2616-0501 Vol 3, No. 1 March 2019, pp 161 - 173 Gully Erosion Problems in Selected Areas of Edo State: Factors and Control Kayode-Ojo N.1,*, Ikhide A. O.2 and Ehiorobo J. O.3 1,2,3Department of Civil Engineering, University of Benin, Benin City, Edo State, Nigeria Corresponding Author: *[email protected] ABSTRACT Gully erosion is a serious ecological problem in Edo State and has negative impact on agricultural productivity, lives and properties in both urban and rural environments. This paper therefore aims at identifying factors contributing to the formation of gullies and methods of controlling them so that further environmental degradation would be averted. Three gully sites were selected from the three geo-political zones of the State. Data were collected through remote sensing, field topographical survey and soil sampling on gully walls and gully beds. Meteorological and hydrological data were also collected. Slope stability analysis was also carried out. The Kerby- Kirpich equation was applied to estimate the overall time of concentration and Rational formula used to determine the peak discharge. The study revealed that the selected study areas possess all the characteristics of an erosion prone area which are: rainfall of very high intensity, steep slopes resulting in large runoff and soil with low organic content and relatively low shear strength obtained from the geotechnical investigations. Results from the studies revealed that the gully width and depth varied considerably from top to bottom. The cross section shows that the gully is U- shaped for Ekehuan gully and V-shaped for Auchi and Ewu gullies, indicating a large catchment area and a large volume of discharge passing through the gully.

  • Effects of Climate Change on Irrigation Activities: a Case Study of the Benin-Owena River Basin Irrigation Projects
    Water Resources Systems—Hydrological Risk, Memagement and Development (Proceedings of symposium IIS02b held during 1UGG2003 at Sapporo, July 2003). IAHS Publ. no. 281, 2003. 287 Effects of climate change on irrigation activities: a case study of the Benin-Owena River basin irrigation projects CATHERINE I. IKHILE Department of Geography and Regional Planning, University of Benin, PMB 1154, Benin City, Nigeria [email protected] GEORGE U. IKHILE c/o Scripture Union (Nigeria), PO Box 743, Benin City, Nigeria Abstract The effects of climate change on irrigation activities in the Benin- Owena River Basin (BORB), southwestern Nigeria, were investigated, using rainfall and temperature data from 1961 to 2000 with irrigation activity data from 1990 to 2000. Climate records showed a large variation in annual rainfall between 1961-1980. The rainfall variation between 1980-2000 was less pronounced, and rainfall was much lower. The period 1982-1986 exhibited the greatest downward trend in rainfall. The decadal range of temperature showed a gradual warming of the environment. Increasing temperatures and decreasing rainfall, coupled with an increasing population, led farmers and policy makers in Nigeria to embark on massive irrigation activities from the 1990s to 2000. Farm productivity levels and irrigations activities in Edo State are discussed. Key words Benin-Owena River basin; climate change; irrigation; Nigeria; rainfall; temperature INTRODUCTION Over the years, the Federal Government of Nigeria has launched several agricultural programmes (Sanda et ai, 1994; Imoudu et al., 2001) to adopt irrigation agriculture as a means of achieving the government's objective of self-sufficiency in food and fibre production. The history of irrigation activities in Edo State is attributable to the sub- Saharan West African drought and desertification of the late 1970s and early 1980s (Oyebande et al., 1978; Nicolson, 1980; Lamb, 1982; Olaniran et al, 1991).
