Inhaltsangabe
This study explores urban resilience to climate change within the framework of town planning practice. This is against the background that existing development control instruments of town planning do not address the task of building urban climate change resilience, yet urban vulnerability to climate change is expected to increase in the years to come. The aim of this study was to examine the operational responses of urban planning to the effects of climate change in Lokoja with a view to analyzing their potentials for resilience building. This study adopted survey and experimental design. Primary and secondary data sources were used. While the former were derived through structured questionnaire, personal interviews, and personal observation schedules, the latter were elicited from books, journals, Internet materials and excerpts from the Nigerian Meteorological Agency (NIMET). Rainfall and temperature data was gathered from published works for a 30-year period (1981 -2010) in order to explain the pattern of climate change. Multi-stage sampling technique enabled 430 respondents spread equally across 10 selected neighbourhoods to be sampled.
