Ces deux lignes, parallèle et mér1d1ea.. oo~et1tuent 1les coordonnées et leur intersection définit avec précision l'emplacement exact du village. Rappelons que l'ensemble du Cameroun se trouve à l'Est du méridien de Greenwich et·auNord de llEquateur. Les coordon~ées sont exprimées en degrés, la--­ distance unitaire entre deux parallèles (ou deux méridiens) est de un degré (1 0 ) soit approximativement 110 km. Cha.que degré est divisé en 60 minutes (60'). ~our retrouver sur la carte l'emplacemènt d'un village, on lit d'abord sur le dictionnaire le nom daTa carte. Nous avons utilisé pour le Lom et Djérem les cartes suivantes : éditées par le Service Géographique de Yao~ndé (Annexe I.G.N.) : Cartes au 1/200.000ème : BAGOlX) BAT0URI BERTOUA BETARE-oYA DENG-DENG MEIGANGA Cartes au 1/50.000 ème : BERTOUA 2 d 3 a 3 b 3 c 3 d 4 a 4- b 4- c , 4 d mftARE-:oYA 1 a 1 b 1 c 3 a 3 b 3 c 3 d 4 c MEl GANGA 1 b 1 c Chaque carte au 1/200.000ème représente la superficie comprise entre 2 méridiens et 2 parallèles.

  • The Thermal Ecology of Snakes in Bertoua Municipality, Eastern Region, Cameroon
    Journal of Ecology & Natural Resources ISSN: 2578-4994 The Thermal Ecology of Snakes in Bertoua Municipality, Eastern Region, Cameroon Maurice ME*, Mengwi NH, Okon OA, Lengha TK and Ayamba NS Research article Department of Environmental Science, Faculty of Science, University of Buea, Volume 3 Issue 4 Cameroon Received Date: September 20, 2019 Published Date: October 25, 2019 *Corresponding author: DR Melle Ekane Maurice, Department of Environmental DOI: 10.23880/jenr-16000175 Science, Faculty of Science, University of Buea, BUEA, P.O.BOX. 63, Cameroon, Tel: +237675393156; Email: [email protected] Abstract Climate generally and temperature in particular have long been recognized as important determinants of the distribution, abundance, and activity of animals. Thus, the maintenance of appropriate body temperatures affects both the fitness of individual snakes and the viability of their populations. Thermoregulation is probably the most important factor affecting habitat selection in snakes. Hence, this study is aimed at exploring the role of weather condition to the ecological niche of snakes in Bertoua forest area. The research data collection was done by the use of check-sheets for a period of one month from 7:30am-5:30pm each day in the forest area of Bertoua. A random spot observation of 444 snakes was made on 6 species, black cobras (Naja melanoleuca), green mambas (Dendroaspis viridis), vipers (Bitis gabonica), green-tree snakes (Dendrelaphis punctulatus), small brown snakes (Dendrelaphis shokan), and python (Python regius). Ecological factors such as weather condition, vegetation, landscape, location, and photo-period were also taken into account. The survey revealed an ecological relationship between weather condition and various species of snakes in the study area, χ2 = 11.244 df=10, P<0.05.

    2.3 Cameroon Road Network Overview Road Security Axle Load Limits Bridges Road Class and Surface Conditions Distance Matrix Transport corridors CAR Chad Road from Douala to Ngaoundéré Road from Ngaoundéré to Kousseri Road from Ngaoundéré to Touboro Overview According to official statistics, there are about 50,000 km of roads in Cameroon, of which 5,000 km are paved. The road network, both paved and unpaved, is poorly maintained. Road Distance (km) Paved 5,133 Cameroon Road Network Unpaved 12,799 Tracks 59,657 Total 77,589 Classification Administering Agency Network Length National Roads Road Fund Cameroon 7041 km Provincial Roads Road Fund Cameroon 5616 km Departmental Roads Road Fund Cameroon 8075 km Rural Roads (classified) Road Fund Cameroon 12843 km Page 1 Rural Roads (non-classified) Road Fund Cameroon 16100 km The country’s road density is estimated at 7 km for each 1,000 km2. During the wet season, only paved roads remain passable. Traffic on unpaved roads may be restricted by rain barriers. Trucks can therefore be stopped for many hours. On many bridges the traffic of trucks is not allowed. Trucks must use deviations through rivers, but during the rainy season when the waters are high, passing through rivers bank may be impossible. The Road Fund of Cameroon was created in 1996 in order to implement the government policy on the road sector. Government efforts to improve the state /condition of Cameroonian roads are focused on a network of 27,000 km and the process is being undertaken. At N’Gaoundere, on the N1 to Garoua, the tarring process is ongoing.

  • Metwo Silly and Stand
    FACTS & FIGURES st st From January 1 to December 31 , 2016 The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) is an impartial, neutral and independent humanitarian organization present in Yaounde since 1992, in Maroua since 2013, in Bertoua since 2014 and, in Kousseri since 2015. In accordance with its mandate, the ICRC works to assist victims of armed conflicts and other situations of violence and to promote international humanitarian law. HUMANITARIAN SITUATION: Clashes and violence, according to figures published by ECHO, have led to an estimated 2.9 million people in need of humanitarian assistance in the northern and eastern regions of Cameroon. An estimated 200,000 internally displaced persons (IDPs) have been identified in the Adamawa, East, North and Far North regions. These populations who have fled their villages because of violence have mostly found refuge in communities already in a precarious situation. This situation is adversely affecting the limited resources and livelihoods of the host communities. Access to food, drinking water and health care remains extremely difficult.
