Book Glaciers  Nature  Water  and Local Community in Mount Kenya

Download or read book Glaciers Nature Water and Local Community in Mount Kenya written by Kazuharu Mizuno and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-03-18 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes the challenges for the natural environments and local communities in the future. Among the high mountains of Africa, only Kilimanjaro, Mount Kenya, and the Rwenzori Mountains are still capped with glaciers. The retreating rate of these glaciers has accelerated, and they are expected to disappear in the near future. In the area around Mount Kenya, the precipitation is generally low, such that rainfall cannot stably supply water for farmlands and daily life. It has been revealed that the glacial meltwater has produced springs at the foot of the mountain. It is therefore important to characterize the condition of water sources near Mount Kenya for use by local people. This book discusses the relationships between the actual state of the climate and glacier shrinkage around Mount Kenya, the surrounding vegetation, soil, and water environments, and the lives of the foothill region inhabitants confronting the glacier shrinkage. This book is valuable in the contemporary age, when the assurance of a sustainable relationship between nature and mankind is critical.

Book Hydrological Impacts of Land Use Changes on Water Resources Management and Socio Economic Development of the 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 of the Upper Ewaso Ng iro River Basin in Kenya written by Stephen Njuguna Ngigi and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2006-11-02 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Offering an assessment of 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, this book explores 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. The book discusses strategies to ensure equity allocation of basin water, creating a win-win situation for the water users affected.
