Abstract

ABSTRACT Urban growth concept has dragged the attention of several scholars of different fields of study for decades. Urban growth refers to expansion of urban centres in size due population growth, which hiked the number of buildings in urban centres around the world. The finding of the paper indicate that Gombe Metropolis expanded by (85 hectares) each year from 2000 to 2010 and the expansion of Gombe Metropolis occur in all direction. The rate at which Gombe Metropolis expand grown to (203 hectares) each year from 2010 up to date. Therefore, the rate at which Gombe metropolis expanded increases by 138% from 2010 to date and how number of markets increases to 16 currently from 12 in the year 2010. This paper study the Impact of urban growth on market in Gombe Metropolis. Coordinate of markets of existing markets was collected. For second set of data used in this paper i.e. secondary data which include map of Gombe metropolis, related journals, text books, published and unpublished document, and Newspaper were consulted. The data generated from questionnaire administration were analysed using tables, graphs and charts. Satellite images showing how urban growth is taken place in Gombe Metropolis were also analysed. The study examines the impact of urban growth on Gombe Metropolis markets activities over the period of study. The findings of the study indicate emergence of new markets in the study area over the years of study as a result of urban expansion that occur in Gombe Metropolis. It also indicated that the new established markets were located in areas where urban growth take place in study area and these new markets are patronized by people within the environment or vicinity of the markets. Most of the newly emerged markets are located at the periphery of the town where urban expansions occur rapidly.

Abstract

Abstract Earthquake is one of the catastrophic natural disasters in the history of mankind which consumed hundreds and thousands of human lives every year. Attitude of man in handling natural environment make earthquakes inevitable. The study was design to examine the impact of earthquake magnitude on lives loss during earthquakes. Data adopted for study are solely secondary data which include; journals, textbooks, published and unpublished document. Sampled was derived using purposive sampling techniques, earthquakes that lives were loss during their occurrence characterized with 6.0Mw and above were selected as sample. Regression analysis, maps QGIS software, tables and graphs were used for data analysis in study. The result of the research indicate a fair relation among studied variables. Fig.1.1 Multiple R=0.073, fig. multiple=0.454 and fig. multiple R=0.452. Multiple R determine the nature of relation between study variables, the close the value of multiple R is to 1 the strong the relationship. Which means fair relationship exist between earthquake magnitudes and live loss during 1990-2019 earthquakes. And R2 result fig. 1.1, 1% of the lives lost during earthquakes 1990-1999 are determine by earthquake magnitude, R2 result in fig. 1.4 indicated 21% of the lives lost during earthquakes 2000-2009 are determine by earthquake magnitude and R2 result in fig.1.6 demonstrate 20% of the lives loss during earthquakes 2010-2019 are determine by earthquake magnitudes. Significant F results are fig. 1.1 significant F =0.613, fig. 1.4 significant F=0.001 and fig. 1.6 significant F=0.0004. Two out of the three significant F result indicated that the result of the research is reliable while one result indicated that the result is less reliable.
