CLIMATE CHANGE DYNAMICS: PROTECTION AND SUSTAINABILITY OF BIORESOURCES AND WATER RESOURCES MANAGEMENT IN THE TROPICS.

Ecosystem management and restoration play an important role in climate change mitigation, responses, and adaptation. The gory incidence of the climate change is apparent in the continuous drift in ecological structures, compositions, species variations, migrations, extinctions and inherent effects on socio-economic recessions all over the globe. This, however, is not only complex but has continue to raise the dynamic bars that requires intensive scholastic discourse and evaluation to alleviate and possibly control the impacts. The knowledge of the principles and dynamics of climate change and its impact on biodiversity, speciation, variability, and sustainability and water resources is very critical. This suggests an empirical appraisal and approach and in-depth scholarly debate to unravel the mechanism and possibly proffer panaceas for healthy resilience and restoration of ecosystem equilibrium and sustainability. This study was carried out to unravel the principles and dynamics of climate change with reference to the protection and sustainability of diverse tropical bioresources. During the study, a web-based systematic review search with reference to the ROSES protocol was employed to source 156 articles that studied principles of climate change and their impacts on bioresources protection and sustainability. Seventy-two (72) peer-reviewed articles that met the inclusion criteria were retained and critically reviewed after a thorough screening. The review identified automobile emissions (14%), industries (21%), and agriculture, forestry, and other land uses (AFOLU) (24%) as the major contributors to the increase in global warming. This study recommends green energy, afforestation, ranching, and sustainable agricultural practices as panaceas that will stem the tide of ravaging drift in climate.
