Historical and future hydro-climatic trends were analyzed using climatic, hydrological data and downscaled climate projection under RCP 2.6 and 8.5 scenarios.\u00a0 The Land Use\/Land Cover changes were analyzed using the google earth engine which includes; Landsat imagery, change prediction and model validation. The results showed a significant increase in temperature, decline in forest and reduction in evapotranspiration. The findings provide valuable insights for sustainable land-use planning and water resource management in the Ogun River Basin under changing climate conditions.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/wascal-uac.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Thesis_Ojelabi_Oluwatoyin_2025.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Download here<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Author : Oluwatoyin Khadijat OJELABI This study assessed the impacts of climate and [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":14,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[60],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wascal-uac.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14188"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wascal-uac.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wascal-uac.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wascal-uac.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/14"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wascal-uac.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=14188"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/wascal-uac.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14188\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":14191,"href":"https:\/\/wascal-uac.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14188\/revisions\/14191"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wascal-uac.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=14188"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wascal-uac.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=14188"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wascal-uac.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=14188"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
