摘要

城市化与气候变化之间的相互作用及其对人类社会的相关影响越来越多地被记录在案。本研究关注城市化与气候变化脆弱性之间的关系。具体而言,它调查了尼日利亚气候变化脆弱性与城市化之间关系的空间方面。这项研究至关重要,因为非洲城市化与气候变化之间的关系尚不清楚。对非洲具体国家关系的探索和理解仍然很少。在尼日利亚,研究气候变化脆弱性的努力没有考虑到它与城市化的联系。通过综合脆弱性评估并基于二次数据,本文考察了城市化对气候变化脆弱性的影响。它认为,尼日利亚的城市化并没有显著增加CCV。研究表明,尼日利亚的城市化和CCV存在显著的负相关关系,这表明更多的城市州的CCV水平低于相对更多的农村州。然而,它表明,尼日利亚相对较多的城市州往往对气候变化的敏感性较低,适应能力较高,但在气候变化的暴露程度上没有明显的城乡差异。由此可见,虽然CCV存在城乡差异,但脆弱性的各个组成部分可能与城市化表现出不同的关系。因此,它得出的结论是,气候变化的影响是动态和复杂的。因此,有必要对城市化与气候变化的关系展开激烈的辩论,以推动气候变化研究。因此,尽管采取包容各方的方法应对气候变化是可取的,但探索构成脆弱性的个别因素的影响也至关重要。

Spatial dimension of climate change vulnerability and urbanization relationship in Nigeria
ABSTRACT The interaction between urbanization and climate change and their associated impact on human society is increasingly being documented. This study concerns the relationship between urbanization and climate change vulnerability. Specifically, it investigates the spatial aspect of the relationship between climate change vulnerability and urbanization in Nigeria. The study is vital because the relationship between urbanization and climate change in Africa has remained unclear. An exploration and comprehension of country-specific relationships in Africa have remained scarce. In Nigeria, efforts to research climate change vulnerability (CCV) have not looked at its connection with urbanization. Via an integrated vulnerability assessment and based on secondary data, the paper examines the effect of urbanization on climate change vulnerability. It argues that urbanization does not significantly increase CCV in Nigeria. It shows that urbanization and CCV have a significant negative relationship in Nigeria, suggesting that more urban states have lower levels of CCV than relatively more rural states. However, it indicates that relatively more urban states in Nigeria tend to have lower sensitivity and higher adaptive capacity to climate change, but there is no clear rural-urban difference in exposure to climate change. It follows that while there is a rural-urban disparity in CCV, individual components of vulnerability may exhibit a different relationship with urbanization. Thus, it concludes that the impact of climate change is dynamic and complex. Hence, there is a need to open the urbanization-climate change nexus to a lively debate to further climate change scholarship. Thus, while taking an all-inclusive approach to addressing climate change is desirable, it is vital also to explore the impacts of individual elements that comprise vulnerability.
