Human activities are considered one of the main contributors towards environmental changes. An assessment of the impacts of land use and land cover changes is necessary to facilitate proper planning and management of environmental resources. The objective of this study was to determine the land use and land cover change hotspots and drivers in lagha bor catchment, Wajir County in Kenya. This was achieved by use of Google Earth Engine (GEE) where archived landsat images of 1986, 1990, 2000, 2010 ...

Groundwater is one of the most important water sources relied upon especially in arid and semi-arid areas where surface water is limited. The sustainability of groundwater resources has been under threat due to land use and land cover changes. This study aims to determine the effects of land use and land cover changes on integrated surface and groundwater resources within the Lagha-Bor catchment for the period 1990 to 2020. Landsat images of 1990, 2000, 2010 and 2020 were used along with integra...

Based on the comprehensive use of logging, pressure measurement, testing and other data, the abnormal pressure was identified, the pressure distribution characteristics and mudstone compaction mode were studied, and the causes of overpressure were analyzed. The results show that there is overpressure in the deep area of the study area, and the plane gradually changes from the north to the central area to overpressure, the pressure coefficient in the main depression area is 1.0 - 1.6, and the pre...
