211 | \r\n\r\nAbstract\r\n\r\nIn Sahelian Africa, rural centers have been | ||||
212 | hit by catastrophic floods for many years. In order to prevent the | ||||
213 | impact of flooding, the flood-prone areas and the settlement dynamics | ||||
214 | within them must be identified. The aim of this study is to ascertain | ||||
215 | the floodplain settlement dynamics in the Maouri valley (135 km2) in | ||||
216 | the municipality of Gu\u00e9ch\u00e9m\u00e9, Niger. Through hydraulic | ||||
217 | modeling, the analysis identified the flood-prone areas according to | ||||
218 | three return periods. The dynamics of the settlements in these areas | ||||
219 | between 2009 and 2019 were identified through the photointerpretation | ||||
220 | of high-resolution satellite images and compared with those in the | ||||
221 | adjacent non-flood-prone areas. Spatial planning was applied to | ||||
222 | extract the main dynamics. The synergic application of these | ||||
223 | disciplines in a rural context represents a novelty in the research | ||||
224 | field. Since 2009, the results have shown a 52% increase of the | ||||
225 | built-up area and a 12% increase in the number of buildings, though | ||||
226 | the increase was higher in the flood-prone areas. The factors that | ||||
227 | transform floods into catastrophes were identified through perceptions | ||||
228 | gathered from the local communities. Three dynamics of the expansion | ||||
229 | and consolidation of buildings were observed. Specific flood risk | ||||
230 | prevention and preparation actions are proposed for each type of | ||||
231 | dynamic.\r\n\r\n", | ||||

926 | \r\n\r\nAbstract\r\n\r\nIn Sahelian Africa, rural centers have been | ||||
927 | hit by catastrophic floods for many years. In order to prevent the | ||||
928 | impact of flooding, the flood-prone areas and the settlement dynamics | ||||
929 | within them must be identified. The aim of this study is to ascertain | ||||
930 | the floodplain settlement dynamics in the Maouri valley (135 km2) in | ||||
931 | the municipality of Gu\u00e9ch\u00e9m\u00e9, Niger. Through hydraulic | ||||
932 | modeling, the analysis identified the flood-prone areas according to | ||||
933 | three return periods. The dynamics of the settlements in these areas | ||||
934 | between 2009 and 2019 were identified through the photointerpretation | ||||
935 | of high-resolution satellite images and compared with those in the | ||||
936 | adjacent non-flood-prone areas. Spatial planning was applied to | ||||
937 | extract the main dynamics. The synergic application of these | ||||
938 | disciplines in a rural context represents a novelty in the research | ||||
939 | field. Since 2009, the results have shown a 52% increase of the | ||||
940 | built-up area and a 12% increase in the number of buildings, though | ||||
941 | the increase was higher in the flood-prone areas. The factors that | ||||
942 | transform floods into catastrophes were identified through perceptions | ||||
943 | gathered from the local communities. Three dynamics of the expansion | ||||
944 | and consolidation of buildings were observed. Specific flood risk | ||||
945 | prevention and preparation actions are proposed for each type of | ||||
946 | dynamic.\r\n\r\n", | ||||
