Predicting Future Evolution of Rural Out-Migration
Rural out-migration is a development issue shaping rural-urban interaction in the global south. Population re-distribution from rural to urban areas has development consequences for both the source and the destination areas. At destination, this phenomenon contributes to rapid population growth, while at origin, it contributes to labour drain. To support integrated rural and urban development, it is imperative to predict rural out-migration flows…
Quantifying the importance of different erosion processes and soil and water conservation measure collapses following an extreme rainstorm in the Chinese Loess Plateau
Extreme rainfall events can make disproportionally larger contributions than common rainfalls to soil erosion rates. Yet assessing the importance of different soil erosion processes during such events remains a critical challenge, especially due to a lack of field observations. Based on detailed field surveys and remote‐sensing analyses, we therefore provide erosion budgets for three representative catchments in the Chinese Loess Plateau, followi…
Spatial patterns of urbanisation in Sub-Saharan Africa
Sub-Saharan Africa is rapidly urbanising. This urbanisation may contribute to socio-economic development as more people participate in the urban economy. Nevertheless, rapid urbanisation is not always sustainable. Primary cities often grow fast, leaving secondary towns lagging behind with weaker economies. Viable strategies for sustainable urbanisation may therefore also need to focus on developing secondary towns. Nevertheless, very few studies,…
