Research Interest
Mr. Okach focuses on the role of rainfall and grazing in modifying the structure and functioning of the herbaceous layer community in a moist tropical savanna in Kenya under the supervision of Dr. Dennis Otieno. His work compares the intensity of grazing at 3 levels of manipulated rainfall amounts (50%, 100% and 150%). Both spatial and seasonal impacts on species composition, carbon dioxide exchange and biomass productivity are examined. The data will be incorporated into long-term climate data using PROXEL-PIXGRO model in order to predict future productivity trends in this region of E. Africa.
