Book Assessing water availability under pastoral livestock systems in drought prone Isiolo District  Kenya

Download or read book Assessing water availability under pastoral livestock systems in drought prone Isiolo District Kenya written by Bancy M. Mati and published by IWMI. This book was released on 2006-06-02 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report thus presents the results of a study to determine access to water sources by pastoral communities and their livestock in Isiolo District of Kenya, with special focus on water availability during drought conditions. The study was conducted between 2002 and 2003. It utilized GIS tools and information gathered through rapid assessments involving researchers, government officers, local communities and NGOs. Isiolo is an ASAL district in Eastern Province of Kenya, where pastoral livestock systems form the main economic activity, but water scarcity and recurrent drought are major constraints. From the study, GIS thematic maps were developed to include rainfall distribution, land use-cover, drainage systems, hydrogeology and grazing potential as well as types and location of water sources, their operational status and major characteristics.

Book Hydrological Impacts of Land Use Changes on Water Resources Management and Socio Economic Development Ofthe Upper Ewaso Ng iro River Basin in Kenya

Download or read book Hydrological Impacts of Land Use Changes on Water Resources Management and Socio Economic Development Ofthe Upper Ewaso Ng iro River Basin in Kenya written by Stephen Njuguna Ngigi and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2017-11-06 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the apparently desperate situation of sub-Saharan Africa, rainwater harvesting and management is a viable intervention for upgrading rain-fed agriculture, improving water supply and sustainable livelihoods in water-scarce river basins. If strategies are developed to ensure equity allocation of basin water, a win-win situation for diverse water users can be achieved. This thesis assesses the hydrological impacts of land use changes on water resources management and socio-economic development of the upper Ewaso Ng�iro river basin in Kenya. It considers the impact of irrigation on dry season river flows and highlights the challenge of flood storage strategies. While flood storage can reduce dry season irrigation water abstractions by more than a half, without affecting hydro-ecological functions downstream, unplanned flood harvesting may impact negatively on flood flow, being detrimental to natural ecosystems and groundwater downstream.
