Comparative Analysis of Climate Change Coastal Erosion and Environmental Migration in Senegal, Kenya and Tanzania
Abstract
This study investigates climate change, coastal erosion, and environmental migration in Senegal, Kenya, and Tanzania using rainfall, temperature, and shoreline data from 1986-2022. Results show rising rainfall and temperatures, significant erosion rates (Senegal: -99.74%, Kenya: -75%, Tanzania: -78%), and impacts on land use, wetlands, and population displacement. Questionnaire surveys confirm coastal erosion as a key driver of migration. Recommendations include improved early warning systems, coastal risk assessments, inclusive development, and innovative climate financing to enhance resilience and adaptation.
