2010 Sahel famine

Columns: Drought-hit nation | Climate summary | Population density per square mile | Sahel state , Sénégal River-area state or CILLS member
Sudan | Sudan straddles the Sahara , with only the Nile Valley and the small coastal region being available to agriculture and part of the Sudd flood plain lies in the south Water levels fluctuate up to 1.5 meters , depending on the intensity of seasonal flooding . and is mostly Sudanian savanna and sahel | 43.7joint figure for both | No | Southern Sudan | South Sudan has got more tropical savanna and Sahel ecoregions and most of the Sudd flood plain lies in the north Water levels fluctuate up to 1.5 meters , depending on the intensity of seasonal flooding . and is mostly Sudanian savanna and sahel | 43.7joint figure for both | Sahel | Chad | Chad is divided into three distinct zones , from the Sudanese savanna in the south , the Sahel in the central belt and the Sahara Desert in the north . The most fertile land is around the steadily shrinking Lake Chad | 20.8 | Sahel and CILLS | Central African Republic | The climate of the C.A.R . is generally tropical . The northern areas are subject to harmattan winds , which are hot , dry , and carry dust . The northern regions have been subject to desertification , and the northeast is a desert . The remainder of the country is prone to flooding from nearby rivers as much of the southern border is formed by tributaries of the Congo River , with the Mbomou River in the east merging with the Uele River to form the Ubangi River . In the west , the Sangha River flows through part of the country . The eastern border lies along the edge of the Nile river watershed . The estimated amount of the country covered by forest ranges up to 8% , with the densest parts in the south . It is highly diverse , and includes commercially important species of Ayous , Sapelli and Sipo . The deforestation rate is 0.4% per annum , and lumber poaching is commonplace | 18.4 | No | Cameroon | The climate varies with the terrain . The climate is exceedingly hot and humid , the coastal belt includes some of the wettest places on earth . For example , Debundscha , at the base of Mt . Cameroon , has an average annual rainfall of 405 inches ( 10,287 mm ) . The coastal plain extends 15 to 150 kilometres ( 9 to 93 mi ) inland from the Gulf of Guinea and has an average elevation of 90 metres ( 295 ft ) . Exceedingly hot and humid with a short dry season , this belt is densely forested and includes some of the wettest places on earth , part of the Cross-Sanaga-Bioko coastal forests . The South Cameroon Plateau rises from the coastal plain to an average elevation of 650 metres ( 2,133 ft ) . Equatorial rainforest dominates this region , although its alternation between wet and dry seasons makes it is less humid than the coast . This area is part of the Atlantic Equatorial coastal forests ecoregion . An irregular chain of mountains , hills , and plateaus known as the Cameroon range extends from Mount Cameroon on the coast - Cameroon 's highest point at 4,095 metres ( 13,435 ft ) - almost to Lake Chad at Cameroon 's northern tip . This region has a mild climate , particularly on the Western High Plateau , although rainfall is high . Its soils are among Cameroon 's most fertile , especially around volcanic Mount Cameroon . Volcanism here has created the crater lakes , like Lake Nyos of the Cameroonian Highlands forests ecoregion . The southern plateau rises northward to the grassy , rugged Adamawa Plateau . This feature stretches from the western mountain area and forms a barrier between the country 's north and south . Its average elevation is 1,100 metres ( 3,609 ft ) , and its temperature ranges from 22 °C ( 71.6 °F ) to 25 °C ( 77 °F ) with high rainfall . The northern lowland region extends from the edge of the Adamawa to Lake Chad with an average elevation of 300 to 350 metres ( 984 to 1,148 ft ) . Its characteristic vegetation is savanna scrub and grass . This is an arid region with sparse rainfall and high median temperatures | 102.8 | No | Nigeria | Nigeria is covered by rainforests over the southern third , Guinean forest-savanna mosaic in the middle third and both savannas and Sahel in the northern third . The mountain land is also found in the mountains near the Cameroonian border . The most southerly part of the forest , especially around the Niger River and Cross River deltas , is mangrove swamp ( see Central African mangroves ) . North of this is fresh water swamp , containing different vegetation from the salt water mangrove swamps , and north of that is rain forest | 433.8 | Sahel | Niger | Niger 's subtropical climate is mainly very hot and dry . Niger is located mostly in the Sahara desert save for a small piece of tropical savanna around the River Niger basin . Some flat to rolling savanna and Sahel land is in the southernmost fifth of its territory and in the northern hills | 31.2 | Sahel and CILLS | Burkina Faso | A relatively dry tropical savanna , the Sahel extends beyond the borders of Burkina Faso , and borders the Sahara to its north and the fertile region of the Sudan to the South . Situated at a middle latitude is the Sudan-Sahel region , a transitional zone for rainfall and temperature levels . Further to the south , the Sudan-Guinea zone receives more than heavy rain each year and has cooler temperatures . The northern fringes of the country are beginning to become a desert | 148.9 | Sahel and CILLS
