Niger Delta Hydrological Hazard Policy Analysis Across Six Sectors

A 5.5 KB dataset by Obroma O. Agumagu, last updated March 25, 2026, analyzing six Nigerian national policy documents. The data likely contains results from a qualitative document analysis, including keyword frequencies and binary coding, to assess policy alignment on hydrological hazards in the Niger Delta region.

Use Cases

• Assessing policy alignment across sectors based on keyword frequency and content analysis mentioned in the description.
• Identifying recognized hydrological hazards and their drivers across environmental, agricultural, and industrial policies.
• Evaluating proposed risk reduction measures, such as flood defence structures and hazard mapping, for coherence.
• Analyzing the limited consideration of hydrological hazards in specific sectors like petroleum policy.

Strengths

• Focuses on a specific, policy-relevant region: the Niger Delta, Nigeria.
• Analyzes six distinct national policy sectors (environment, climate change, agriculture, water, forest, petroleum).
• Uses multiple documented methodologies: Qualitative Document Analysis, content analysis, keyword analysis, and frequency counts.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• The dataset is very small at 5.5 KB, indicating limited scope.
