Produktbeschreibung
This research-related work is a brief about the highly cataclysmic recurring Landslides of Lagam Escarpment in Kaben Location of Elgeyo-Marakwet County, Kenya. They have caused mayhem to the community in the area since the 1961 El-Nino, when a major rainstorm hit the area (Kiptungu). Kaben location landslides denudated Embosumer River and left huge boulders scattered over many farmlands on 12th April 2010, where 14 people lost their lives, others got badly injured and lots of property destroyed. A decade later, on Sunday, 19th April 2020, in the afternoon, heavy rains catastrophically bounded the area causing massive mudslides that involved many rivers and streams and again killed 26 lives apart from destruction of homes, schools and farmlands simultaneously. Thus this work attempts to recommend mitigation measures and positive lifesaving actions to be addressed by the area residents and all concerned parties accordingly.
