My study area is on an island of the coast of Kenya. Key activities are geological mapping, aquifer characterization and groundwater modelling. Groundwater data collection and analysis as well as geophysical data collection.
I aim to analyse the impact of climate change on coastal groundwater resources and propose strategies for sustainable groundwater abstraction in the coastal island.
