KENYA. Desertification. Climate Group. 2004. - KENYA. Mount Kilimanjaro. The name Kilimanjaro comes from the Swahili words, Kilima Njaro,
meaning shining mountain. But this glacier no longer shines as the temperature is rising beyond the point where permanent snow and ice can survive even on Africa's highest peak. Scientists now believe that for the first time since the end of the Ice Age the... - Alex Majoli

KENYA. Desertification. Climate Group. 2004. - KENYA. Not only the wildlife is dependent on the water supply provided by Mount Kenya and Kilimanjaro. Villagers carry water from the Narumoru River for their daily needs while their cattle graze on any vegetation they can find on the rocky banks. An estimated three million people rely directly on the mountains for their water. 2004. - Alex Majoli

KENYA. Desertification. Climate Group. 2004. - KENYA. Africa has always suffered periodic droughts but the plains around the base of Mount Kilimanjaro, especially on the Tanzanian side, are becoming drier. As the forests disappear and the temperature rises this area is in danger of becoming desert. 2004. - Alex Majoli

KENYA. Desertification. Climate Group. 2004. - KENYA. Elephants are constantly on the move looking for places to feed and bathe, often travelling long distances to avoid droughts. In Tanzania, more and more are invading
the forests on Kilimanjaro as their homes on the plains are drying out. Once in the forest the elephants cause significant damage, further threatening the fragile forest ecosystem which is already under threat as a result of climate change. 2004. - Alex Majoli

KENYA. Desertification. Climate Group. 2004. - KENYA. The Pangani River is vital to the wildlife of Tanzania bringing much needed water to the dry plains. It also provides water for hydroelectric dams and irrigation for hard pressed farmers. Fed by the springs that flow from the base of Mount Kilimanjaro the river levels are falling, making these depth markers redundant today. 2004. - Alex Majoli

KENYA. Desertification. Climate Group. 2004. - KENYA. Moisture held by the air condenses and falls as rain or forms low clouds from
which forest vegetation such as the Erica Forest, on the upper slopes of the Kilimanjaro, can extract moisture through condensation. This phenomenon helps increase the water flow. Unfortunately, numerous forest fires and illegal logging threaten this vital natural process. 2004. - Alex Majoli

KENYA. Desertification. Climate Group. 2004. - KENYA. Mount Kenya, Africa's majestic second highest peak, contains the remnants of fast disappearing snowfields. The rain soaked up by the forests on the mountain's lower slopes not only feeds the springs and the rivers, but also produces its own clouds and rain which helps feed the grasslands. 2004. - Alex Majoli

KENYA. Desertification. Climate Group. 2004. - KENYA. Vultures get a ready food supply in the droughts that are a feature of the African plains, but that assumes a cycle of plenty followed by want. If there is a permanent population crash among Africa's currently teeming big animal herds then the future of the vulture in Kenya's Amboseli National Park is just as bleak. 2004. - Alex Majoli

KENYA. Desertification. Climate Group. 2004. - KENYA. The swamps in Amboseli National Park are a haven for wildlife. The water which feeds the swamps is filtered through the porous soils of Mount Kilimanjaro and surfaces in the plains to provide a welcome environment for many birds and a playground for elephants. Early indications show that climate change will affect the water supply to this area. 2004. - Alex Majoli
