Environmental Justice and the Equitable Distribution of Climate Burdens in Yenagoa, Bayelsa State, Nigeria: A Review and Spatial-Distributive Analysis of Flood and Oil-Pollution Burdens in a Niger Delta Urban Capital

Yenagoa, the riverine capital of Bayelsa State in Nigeria's Niger Delta, sits at the intersection of two compounding environmental stressors: climate-induced flooding and five decades of oil- and gas-related pollution. This paper applies the environmental justice (EJ) framework comprising distributive, procedural, and...

Biodiversity Credits and Carbon Markets as Financing Mechanisms for Environmental Sustainability in Nigeria: A Policy and Research Review

Nigeria loses forest at a scale measured in the tens to hundreds of thousands of hectares every year, and its wetlands, savannas, and marine ecosystems face mounting pressure from land-use change, extractive activity, and population growth. At the same time, two rapidly evolving global finance instruments — carbon mark...

Compound Coastal Flooding and Climate Change in the Niger Delta:Hydro-Climatic Modelling And Engineering Adaptation A Synthesis and Conceptual Modelling Framework

The Niger Delta, Africa's largest deltaic and mangrove ecosystem, is increasingly exposed to compound coastal flooding the co-occurrence or successive interaction of fluvial discharge, pluvial runoff, storm surge, tidal elevation, and relative sea-level rise (RSLR) driven by anthropogenic climate change, land subsidenc...

Integrating Indigenous Knowledge with Climate Change Engineering for Disaster Risk Reduction in the Niger Delta

The Niger Delta combines recurrent riverine and pluvial flooding, coastal erosion, sea-level rise, wetland degradation, rapid urbanisation and infrastructure deficits with long histories of community adaptation. Disaster risk reduction in this setting is often framed as a choice between formal engineering and Indigenou...

The Impact of Climate Change on Coastal Erosion: A Case of Bonny and Okrika Communities in Rivers State, Nigeria.

Coastal erosion is a major environmental and disaster-risk concern in the Niger Delta, where low elevation, tidal channels, mangrove ecosystems, rapid development and hydrocarbon-related activities interact with climatic and geomorphic processes. This paper examines the impact of climate change on coastal erosion in Bo...

Climate-Induced Flooding and Vulnerability of Oil and Gas Production Facilities in the Niger Delta: A Climate-Resilient Engineering and Disaster-Risk Perspective

The Niger Delta concentrates almost all of Nigeria's onshore and shallow-water hydrocarbon production inside one of the lowest-lying, most rapidly changing deltaic systems in Africa. Recurrent extreme floods — most notably in 2012 and 2022 — have inundated flow stations, gas plants, manifolds, export terminals and pipe...
