Abstract:

AbstractThe forests of the Kilum-Ijim area, around Mount Oku in West Cameroon, are the largest remaining patch of montane forest in West Africa, and the highest in altitude. This important habitat harbours endemic species of both animals and plants but is surrounded by a high density of human settlements: c. 300,000 people live within a day's walk of the forest, which covers only 200 sq km. BirdLife International and the Ministry of the Environment and Forestry, Government of Cameroon, are currently operating the Kilum-Ijim Forest Project, with the overall goal of conserving representative areas of the Cameroon montane forest biome in the long-term. The purpose of the project is toensure that the biodiversity, extent and ecological processes of the Kilum-Ijim Forest are maintained and that the forest is used sustainably by the local communities. The existence of a small Sphagnum community and associated wetland plant species was discovered in 1997 on the summit of Mount Oku, at 2900 m. This site is of extremely high conservation importance because several plant species endemic to the Kilum-Ijim area have been recorded there. In addition, it is the highest Sphagnum bog and the source of the highest stream in West Africa.

Abstract:

Mount Cameroon, SW Cameroon, has already been described as a unique hotspot of the many-plumed moth (Lepidoptera, Alucitidae), with their local diversity unrivalled in the entire Afrotropics. We confirm its importance with description of seven new species: Alucita bakweri Ustjuzhanin & Kovtunovich, sp. nov., Alucita jana Ustjuzhanin & Kovtunovich, sp. nov., Alucita bakingili Ustjuzhanin & Kovtunovich, sp. nov., Alucita tatjana Ustjuzhanin & Kovtunovich, sp. nov., Alucita zuza Ustjuzhanin & Kovtunovich, sp. nov., Alucita deja Ustjuzhanin & Kovtunovich, sp. nov., and Alucita bokwango Ustjuzhanin & Kovtunovich, sp. nov. These descriptions have raised the known local diversity of many-plumed moth species on Mount Cameroon to 22, i.e., over a quarter of the known Afrotropical biodiversity of this group. This study also emphasises the great conservation importance of the area.

Abstract:

Prunus africana (Hook. f.) Kalkman est une plante de haute valeur médicinale qui connait de forte pression d’exploitation au Mont Cameroun. Dans le cadre d’une récolte durable des écorces, deux méthodes d’exploitation (2/4 et 4/8 opposées) ont été recommandées par l’Agence National de Développement des Forêts (ANAFOR) qui est l’autorité scientifique CITES du Cameroun. Cette étude porte sur l’analyse de la soutenabilité biologique et économique de ces méthodes de récolte en vigueur Cameroun. Un inventaire d’exploitation au taux de sondage de 100% dans une parcelle de 100 ha en fin de première rotation (cycle de 5 années), a servi à la collecte des données sur l’état de santé des arbres (mort, vivant, dépérissant), la mesure des diamètres à hauteur de poitrine et le dénombrement de la population d’arbre. Au total 170 arbres ont été dénombrés, ce qui correspond à 1,7 tiges/ha. Dans cet échantillon on compte 84 arbres (54%) exploités à la méthode 4/8. Ce groupe comprend 23 arbres dépérissant (27,40%), 7 arbres morts (8,30%) et 54 arbres vivants (64,30%). Tandis que sur un effectif de 86 arbres (56%) exploités par la méthode 2/4 on a observé 12 arbres dépérissant (14%), aucun arbre mort et 74 arbres vivants (86%). Ces informations montrent que la méthode d’écorçage (4/8) est plus compromettante sur la croissance des populations d’arbre. Elle est également économiquement la moins rentable avec des pertes de 1650 $US comparée à la méthode 2/4 (660 $). La méthode 2/4 a un faible impact sur la santé des arbres, elle peut être améliorée et adoptée comme méthode de récolte durable qui garantit une cicatrisation rapide de l’écorce des arbres et des revenues importants.Mots clés : Plante médicinale, méthode de récolte durable, régénération, aménagement des ressources forestières, Mont Cameroun. English Title: Comparative analysis of the sustainability of prunus africana (Hook. f.) Kalkman harvesting techniques used in Cameroon: biologic and socioeconomic incidence Prunus africana (Hook. f.) Kalkman is a medicinal plant with a high socioeconomic value which is facing serious bark harvesting pressure in Mount Cameroon. To ensure sustainable exploitation, two norms (2/4 and 4/8 opposites) was prescribed by the National Forestry Agency (ANAFOR) which is the CITES scientific authority in Cameroon. This study analyzes the biologic and economic sustainability of these harvesting practices. Data collection consisted of trees inventory, measurement of trees diameter and appreciation of tree vitality within a 100 ha plot at the end of the first rotation (five years later after bark harvesting). The sample comprise 170 trees (corresponding to 1.7 trees/ha) amongst which 84 trees (54%) were harvested using 4/8 technic. In this group, 23 (27.40%) trees were found in bad health, 7 (8.30%) trees dead, 54 trees alive (64.30%) and the annual diameter increment was 0.42±0.37 cm while in a group of 86 trees (56%) harvested with 2/4 technic, observation shown: 12 trees (14%) in bad health, 74 trees alive (86%) and annual diameter increment of 0.44±0.36 cm. This statistic shows that, 4/8 technic has a negative impact on trees population and is less benefit with losses estimated at 1650 $US comparing to 660 $US (2/4 technic). The 2/4 technic can be improved and adopted as a suitable harvesting method; since it ensures a fast diameter recovery, low impact on trees population and generate more income.Keywords: Medicinal plant, sustainable harvesting techniques, regeneration, forest resources management, Mount Cameroon.

Abstract:

Detailed tadpole descriptions for toads of the genus Werneria Poche, 1903 have been only published for W. preussi (Matschie, 1893) (Mertens 1938) and W. tandyi (Amiet, 1972) (Rödel et al. 2004), the latter description assigned to this species with reservation. A few characters of W. bambutensis (Amiet, 1972) tadpoles were mentioned by Amiet (1972). So far the assignment of tadpoles to a particular Werneria species was based on geography (locality and altitude). Three Werneria species, W. mertensiana, W. tandyi and W. bambutensis (Fig. 1), co-occur on Mount Manengouba in south-western Cameroon. There they inhabit forests and river edges in different but slightly overlapping altitudes (Rödel et al. 2004). During recent field work (November / December 2010) on Mount Manengouba we collected Werneria tadpoles which are herein described.

Abstract:

In recent years, the separation of people from their land through protected areas and conservation initiatives of local governance has been at the core of criticism in the people–park discourse. However, vital questions remain as to how people maintain cultural relations to parks and their peripheral zones. This paper explores circumstances where people are not entirely disconnected from their culture despite the state management of Mount Cameroon National Park (MCNP) in West Africa. In this example, people uphold subsistence activities and spiritual interaction with ancestors and deities steered under the umbrella of ritual beliefs. Based on an ethnographic inquiry among the Bakweri in the southwest region of Cameroon, we found that factors of remote settlement, an urge for collective assurances among people, and a sense of belonging in an ethnic group enhance a reciprocal attachment between people and place. This observation helps bridge gaps in people–park relations through cultural continuity.

Abstract:

Background. Anaemia, a common nutritional deficiency, is a public health problem in the Mount Cameroon area. This study determined the prevalence and possible risk factors of microcytic and malarial anaemia in children less than ≤15 years residing in the Buea and Limbe municipalities in the Mount Cameroon area. Methods. A total of 566 children were clinically examined in a cross-sectional study from December 2018 to August 2019 for anaemia and malaria parasites. Blood samples collected were used in evaluating full blood count with the aid of an automated haemoanalyser, and malaria parasite was confirmed by microscopy. Anaemia was defined based on WHO standards while microcytic anaemia and malarial anaemia were defined as microcytosis + anaemia and malaria + anaemia, respectively. Factors that showed significance in the bivariate analysis were entered into a multinomial logistic regression to determine risk factors for microcytic and malarial anaemia. Results. The overall prevalence for anaemia, microcytosis, microcytic anaemia, and malarial anaemia was, respectively, 68.7%, 48.9%, 36.9%, and 19.6% with microcytic anaemia representing 53.7% of all anaemic cases. Risk factors for microcytic anaemia included child age of 1–5 years P = 0.007 , forest ethnicity P = 0.019 , parents being farmers P = 0.038 or jobless P = 0.009 , and having moderate malaria parasitaemia P = 0.048 while those for malarial anaemia were child age of 6–10 years P = 0.008 , parents’ age of 26–35 years P = 0.049 , parents being jobless P = 0.023 , and consuming plantains 3-4 times P = 0.024 a week. Conclusion. Microcytic anaemia is getting to be a severe public health concern while malarial anaemia is a mild public health issue in children residing in urban areas of Mount Cameroon. Parents’ occupation was directly linked to all anaemia forms; hence, any intervention to curb anaemia should consider aspects that will raise the socioeconomic status of the population.

Abstract:

The Mount Cameroon region is investigated using 2-D spectral analysis of the gravity data, in order to determine the depth of subsurface interfaces beneath the region. New gravity data are combined to existing ones to determine the depth of the major subsurface discontinuities throughout the region. Depths are established from the slope of the log-power radial spectrum et the lower end of the wave number band. Three major subsurface density discontinuities are determined beneath the Mount Cameroon: (1) 0.41 ± 0.02 km, (2) 1.26 ± 0.06 km, (3) 4.73 ± 0.24 km. This result has the best precision comparing with the those from the former Bouguer anomaly where the major subsurface discontinuities obtained are: (1) 0.48 ± 0.02 km for the first layer, 1.81 ± 0.09 km for the second and 6.87 ± 0.34 km for the third. This difference is probabely due to the densification of gravity data. The knowledge on the depth of different interfaces in the crust is very important in the reconstitution of the earth history. These results will the support of prospective investigations throughout this region.

Abstract:

Africa is currently experiencing a period of economic growth. Its population is growing rapidly and its economies grow and diversify. To be sustainable, such growth requires a large investment in the energy sector. In the case of Cameroon hydroelectric energy is the main source of electrical power whereas the analysis of the geological point of view shows that Cameroon is unique in west-northern of Africa for its active volcanic line (with the last eruption of Mount Cameroon that last erupted in 1999 and 2000) that is a favorable zone for the production of power from geothermal resources. The Cameroon Volcanic Line (CVL) is 100 km wide linear magmatic megastructure oriented N30°E that extends more than 1500 km from Pagalu Island in the Gulf of Guinea to Lake Chad. Along this active volcanic line, more than one hundred and thirty thermal springs are found with the hottest spring at Woulndé (74°C).The aim of this paper is to evaluate the importance of geothermal energy development in the Cameroon Volcanic Line through a geological investigation of areas (Mt. Cameroon and Adamawa) bearing springs with hottest temperatures. This work is a compilation of the bibliographic analysis find at the same topic of research with a source like an International reviewed article, local documents and a websites research. The absence of commitment and enthusiasm from the government is weakening the sector potentiality to be developed either by private sector investments and also foreign investors. Other applications of geothermal energy in Cameroon are also discussed.

Abstract:

This study analyzes the impact of current climate variability on the southern slope of the Mount Bamboutos. Our objective is to contribute to the knowledge in the domain of climate variability in tropical high-altitude environments based on peasant perceptions. The guiding premise is that, in the face of current climate variability, the climate of tropical high-altitude regions is constantly changing. Based on climate data and surveys of 100 peasant farmers; this analysis shows that rainfall is very irregular and interrupted with frequent dry spells. Farmers have a particular way of reading or interpreting the climate or the weather. Their perceptions of climate variability anchors on the position and color of the clouds, the intensity of the sun, the direction and / or the speed of the wind. Climatic trends from 1980 to 2009 and variations in the cumulative number of rainy days and rainfall averages demonstrated great decadal anomalies. The comparative analysis of climatological data between these decades (1980-1989; 1990-1999 and 2000-2009), show that precipitation has more or less decreased along the southern slopes of Mount Bamboutos. In this same time interval, there has been an overall increased in temperatures. The late onset and early end of rainfall have had remarkable impacts on the agricultural calendar. Adaptation options need to be improved upon and indigenous knowledge integrated into adaptation policy.

Abstract:

AbstractThe Lembo clay deposit occurs on orthogneiss, but it also comprises clays with litho-relicts of volcanic rocks. In this study, ten samples from two sites were investigated. The mineralogical compositions consisted of kaolinite + halloysite + illite + quartz + hematite + anatase ± rutile ± orthoclase ± sanidine ± magnetite ± maghemite ± goethite ± Ba-Al-Fe-phosphates ± carbonates ± sulphates. Kaolinite-halloysite and quartz are the prevailing minerals. Some volcanicderived clays contain Fe-rich kaolinite-halloysite (9.6–14.1 wt.% Fe2O3). The chemical compositions, colours and specific surface area (SSA) measurements reveal two groups of clays: one with a positive whiteness index (IB), small SSA and small Fe content, and the other showing a large SSA, negative IB and relatively large Fe contents. The compositions of the first group are close to those of clays from the Mayouom deposit (Cameroon), and from some European commercial kaolins used in ceramics. Relatively Fe-rich clay materials may conform to most formulations of earthen bricks. As a whole, the Lembo clay deposit comprises various compositions of kaolinitic clays, which may yield the opportunity for extensive application in ceramics.
