A Territory Under Siege
This book explores gully erosion disaster as a global phenomenon, highlighting its conceptual and practical significance within the ecosystem. It explains gully erosion formation in the context of balance of nature, ecological balance, the hydrological cycle and the Systems Theory. From a bird's eye view, this book examined the prevalence of gully erosion across the globe, their underlying causes, the impact of gullies on affected communities and territories, as well as conventional and specialized methods of gully prevention and control. More precisely, the book focused on Anambra State in South-East Nigeria as a case study, evaluating issues and factors that had given the territory the notorious label of "gully erosion capital of Africa". Applying advanced analysis, the book diagnosed the menace of gully erosion in Anambra State and made trail blazing findings.

Climate Adaptation and Conflict Mitigation
As climate change intensifies, conflict-prone tropical regions face heightened vulnerabilities, yet little is known about how climate adaptation and food security efforts affect conflict dynamics. Using South Sudan - a country highly susceptible to climate stress and conflict - as a test case, this Element analyzes how international nongovernmental organizations' (INGO) climate adaptation interventions influence civil war and local social conflicts. It develops a theoretical framework linking climate adaptation to conflict, positing both positive and negative externalities. Drawing on original high-resolution data on INGO-driven adaptation and food security efforts, alongside climate, conflict, and development data, findings are substantiated with interviews from policy workers in South Sudan. The results indicate that while adaptation generally does not reduce conflict, interventions that promote preparedness and are implemented during periods of high climate stress can mitigate social conflicts between militias, pastoralists, and farmers. These insights provide guidance for designing climate adaptation strategies that reduce conflict risks.
