- W2578634994 abstract "SUMMARY The Cameroon coastal lowlands dominated by Barrier beaches, Barrier islands, Creeks and Lagoon formations runs from Limbe in the west to Tiko and Douala to the east along the Gulf of Guinea. The Cameroon coastal lowlands evolved during the last marine transgression of the Holocene, which occurred about 10,000 years ago with the drowning of the mouths of coastal rivers along the tropical coastlines. It is today dominated by a depositional sedimentary environment with peculiar geomorphic character of sandy, low lying swampy nature constantly influenced by saline water incursions from the Atlantic Ocean. The extremely faint slopes of the geomorphic features are easily inundated from sea incursions, which should be worsened by the impending global sea level rise. A crucial issue of importance to this paper against the background of adaptive strategies is the rising global sea level in the face of increasing high population density in the Cameroon coastal lowlands. Coastal flooding from saline water incursion results in ecological stress through wetland loss, inundation and erosion, while the lagoon-creek complex is inflicted by hydro-geomorphic changes with adverse environmental consequences on the coastal settlements. Sustainable development in the rapidly urbanised built-up areas of Limbe and Douala becomes increasingly difficult along the Cameroon coastal lowlands as coastal flooding from inundation is expected to increase in magnitude while land loss become more devastating." @default.
