Description:<\/div>\n

The work was done within the framework of the Wetland & Livelihoods Project: GIRE (Gestion integr\u00e9e de\u00a0resources naturelles) dans le basin du Niger en amont de Taoussa. Given the changes to be expected in\u00a0the Inner Niger Delta due to the ongoing climate change, predicting the flood will become more important.<\/p>\n

Moreover, OPIDIN may function as an early warning system and thus be an essential tool for the people,\u00a0being either fishermen or farmers, to achieve food security.<\/p>\n
