Aigbedion, I., and Okoror, T.E.O Faculty of Physical sciences, Department of Physics, Ambrose Alli University, Ekpoma, Edo state, Nigeria Correspondence: [email protected] (080) : [email protected] (+234(0)8026599221) Key Words: Accumulation, Configuration, conductivity, Electrical, Groundwater, Resistivity ABSTRACT A Geophysical investigation using Vertical Electrical Sounding (VES) method with the Schlumberger electrode configuration was carried out at Irrua Specialist Teaching Hospital (I.S.T.H) and environ in Esan Central Local Government area of Edo State, Nigeria. The study was carried out with the aim of determining the subsurface layer parameters (conductivity, resistivity, and thickness) and thereby ascertains the groundwater potential thereof. With the Omega resistivity meter a total of two (2) VES (Ves 1 and Ves 2) study was done with AB/2 covering a predetermined distance of 500meter. From the quantitative interpretation of the VES data(with computer iterative method) enabled the characterization of eight(8) geo-electric layers made up of dry top sand, sandy clay, sandstone and a high resistive dry sand, covering a total depth of (178.30 - 178.71) m. From the study, it is evident that finding ground water in the study area is in the upper aquifer which is shallow and may not be too prolific in terms of water accumulation and yield.

    MISSISSIPPI LEGISLATURE REGULAR SESSION 2001 By: Senator(s) Frazier, Horhn, Chaney To: Rules SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 60 1 A RESOLUTION WELCOMING THE NIGERIAN-EDO STATE DELEGATION 2 PARTICIPATING IN THE LEGISLATIVE ORIENTATION AND DEMOCRACY 3 STRENGTHENING PROGRAM AND EXTENDING THE BEST WISHES OF THE SENATE. 4 WHEREAS, we in the Senate have been honored in the final 5 weeks of the 2001 Regular Session by the presence of a 6 distinguished delegation of legislators and public officials from 7 the State of Edo, Nigeria, who are participating in a MCID/United 8 States State Department sponsored legislative strengthening 9 program for Nigerian governmental leaders; and 10 WHEREAS, this program consists of a governmental study tour 11 of representative operations in the United States, including the 12 Mississippi Legislature; and 13 WHEREAS, EDO State was created in 1991 out of the former 14 Bendel State. Edo State is bounded in the south by Delta State, 15 in the west by Ondo State, in the north by Kogi State and in the 16 east by Kogi and Anambra States. It occupies a land area of about 17 17,802 square kilometers. From the 1991 census the state has a 18 population of 2,159,848. The original request for the creation of 19 Edo State was presented to the National Assembly in Lagos on July 20 16, 1981, by a delegation headed by the Oba of Benin, Omo n'Oba 21 Erediauwa. A steering committee had earlier been set up to work 22 out proposals for the state's creation. Bendel State was one of 23 the oldest political entities in Nigeria, having started out life 24 as the Midwest Region created by referendum August 9, 1963, and 25 excised from the then-Western Region, it then became known as 26 Midwest State, and then as Bendel State (a contraction of the 27 phrase BENin DELta).

  • GIS-Based Climate Change Induced Flood Risk
    1 GIS-Based Climate Change Induced Flood Risk 2 Mapping in Uhunmwonde Local Government 3 Area, Edo State, Nigeria 4 5 Obot Akpan IBANGA 1*, Osaretin Friday IDEHEN 2 6 7 1Department of Geography and Regional Planning, University of Benin, Benin City, Edo 8 State, Nigeria. 9 1Department of Geography and Regional Planning, Igbinedion University, Okada, Edo State, 10 Nigeria 2 11 12 1413 15 . 16 ABSTRACT Introduction: Flood is one of the climate change induced hazards occurring in most parts of the world. It exposes humanity and many socio-ecological systems to various levels of risks. In Nigeria, extreme rainfall events and poor drainage system have caused inundation of several settlements to flooding. To contain the disaster, risk mapping were among the measures recommended. Aims: The aim of this paper is to highlight flood risk zones (FRZ) in Uhunmwonde Local Government Area (LGA), Edo State, Nigeria. Methodology: Flood risk (FR) was mapped using hazards and vulnerability and implemented using geographic information system (GIS)-based multi-criteria analysis analytic hierarchy process (MCA-AHP) framework by incorporating seven environmental and two socio-economic factors. Elevation, flow accumulation, soil water index of wettest quarter, normalized difference vegetation index, rainfall of wettest quarter, runoff of wettest quarter and distance from rivers constituted the hazard component while population density and area of agricultural land use was the vulnerability layer. The climate change induced flood risk was validated using the responses of 150 residents in high, moderate and low flood risk zones. Results: The resulting flood risk map indicated that about 40.4% of Uhunmwonde LGA fell within high flood risk zone, 35.3% was categorized under moderate flood risk zone whereas low flood risk zone extended up to about 24.3% of the LGA.
