Abstract
A diagram depicting the environmental impact of refugee settlements and land use changes in the Sudan and Ethiopia region. The upper portion of the illustration contrasts the effects of vegetation cover on climate, showing how thermal lift and moisture retention affect rainfall patterns. The lower section illustrates the land degradation resulting from the expansion of refugee camps and agricultural activity, leading to desertification.
