Research Activities Summary

• Participated in hydrogeological and geophysical
  surveys using GIS and remote sensing tools to assess groundwater potential
  and support resource management in coastal and arid regions.


• Conducted environmental impact assessments (EIA)
  focusing on marine and coastal ecosystems, contributing to habitat
  restoration and pollution mitigation strategies along Kenya’s coast in the
  Western Indian Ocean.


• Supported marine geological investigations through
  field mapping, sediment sampling, and analysis of lithological structures,
  contributing to a better understanding of depositional environments and
  coastal dynamics.


• Applied geophysical techniques in infrastructure and
  quarry site investigations, including seismic and subsurface profiling,
  linking land-based geological structures to nearshore marine processes.


• Provided research assistance in projects addressing
  the interaction between geological substrates and marine ecosystems,
  supporting integrated coastal zone management.


• Assisted in marine-focused GIS projects, including
  creation of groundwater potential maps, coastal vulnerability assessments,
  and environmental monitoring in support of sustainable blue economy
  initiatives.
