Assessment of Land Cover and Land Use Change Dynamics in Kibwezi Watershed, Kenya

Assessment of Land Cover and Land Use Change Dynamics in Kibwezi Watershed, Kenya

Land use and land cover (LULC) parameters influence the hydrological and ecological processes taking place in a watershed. Understanding the changes in LULC is essential in the planning and development of management strategies for water resources. The purpose of the study was to detect changes in LU...
