Effects of land use on the riparian vegetation in Mau Forest Complex in Kenya

Effects of land use on the riparian vegetation in Mau Forest Complex in Kenya

Despite the importance of Kenya's Mau Forest Complex and the extensive forest degradation, the effects of different land use systems on the riparian vegetation are poorly known. This study was carried out to determine the effects of different land use systems (ie., natural forest, crop fields,...
