Journal ArticleDOI
Climate change and variability in Kenya: a review of impacts on agriculture and food security
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the past and future crop production and food security in Kenya under variable climate, and revealed that climate change would continue to negatively affect crop production to the already vulnerable communities in the arid and semi-arid areas.
Journal ArticleDOI
Improving Irrigation Water Use Efficiency: A Review of Advances, Challenges and Opportunities in the Australian Context
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reviewed the advancements made towards improving irrigation water use efficiency (WUE), with a focus on irrigation in Australia but with some examples from other countries, and the challenges encountered, as well as the opportunities available, are also discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Monitoring river channel dynamics using remote sensing and GIS techniques
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used remote sensing and geographic information system tools and techniques, aerial photographs, and satellite imagery have been used to determine epochal channel erosion, accretion, and unchanged locations along Tana River, Kenya's longest river.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of the Most Suitable Probability Distribution Models for Maximum, Minimum, and Mean Streamflow
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared the performance of six probability distributions, and illustrates four fitting tests, evaluation procedures, and selection procedures through using a river basin as a case study using an assemblage of the latest computer statistical packages in an integrated development environment for the R programming language.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mapping of land-use/land-cover changes and its dynamics in Awash River Basin using remote sensing and GIS
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyzed and analyzed the long-term dynamics of land-use/land-cover changes and population growth in the Awash River Basin (ARB) using remote sensing and Geographic Information System (GIS).
