Philosophiae Doctor - PhD / This thesis aimed at contributing knowledge on how the widespread changes in land use/cover
resulting from increasing human population and their associated activities, are influencing
hydrological responses in a sub-humid catchment. The study therefore hypothesised that reduced
forest cover over time in favour of agricultural activities is altering hydrological processes of the
catchment which is affecting the flow characteristics in a sub-humid catchment. The sub-humid
catchment selected to investigate these issues is the Nyangores River Catchment in Kenya.
