| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In the tropical highlands and semi-arid to subhumid areas, central Kenya, we clarified landform change rates, their time scale, and types of slope processes, and pointed out disappearance of geomorphological index showing landform changes by farming. The hydrological and geomorphological conditions in the coastal area of the Victoria Lake are revealed, which support high frequency of groundwater use. Moreover in the semi-arid pastoral area, Laikipia Plateau, we also made clear short/long term landform changes due to large-scale gully formation and people's natural resource use.
