ABSTRACT
This study examined the means of harnessing water resources in the midst of geographical and ecological diversity. The variable adopted by the study is the effect of the dry season and rainy season on ecological diversity in southeast Nigeria. The study adopts an in-depth review of existing literature that relates to the theme under consideration. The result revealed that the dry season has a significant negative effect on ecological diversity, it shows dry seasons always produce high levels of water scarcity in ecological diversity while the rainy season has a significant positive effect on ecological diversity, it shows that the rainy season always produces enough water for the ecological diversity. We concluded that there is always a high level of water scarcity during the dry season, which results in water harassment while there is always enough water during the rainy season. We recommend that a provision should be made during the rainy season for the preservation of water against the dry season.
