Drought in East Africa
| Title |
Drought in East Africa |
| Description |
Six successive years of poor rain have left Eastern Africa in severe drought. Rain typically falls between February and June, and 2005 looked promising when rains started to fall in January. The promise dried up, however, when the rains stopped, leaving the latter half of March and the first half of April dry. The cumulative impact of poor rainfall on plants is visible in this vegetation anomaly image. The image was created using data collected by the Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer between April 11, and April 20, 2005, compared to average conditions. Brown blankets regions where vegetation was less healthy and thick than normal, while green shows thicker vegetation than average. The band of brown that stretches west from Somalia reveals that the poor rainfall has withered vegetation across the region. Rainfall is essential for reviving pastoral lands and filling water catchments in this water-scarce region. Life in the pastoral societies impacted by this drought revolves around livestock. The poor rain and lack of vegetation have led to a decline in milk production and livestock deaths?a formula for famine. Millions throughout Sudan, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Somalia, and Kenya are in need of food aid. In Ethiopia, where 7.5 million require food aid, the most severely affected populations live in the south and the east. This correlates well with the image, which shows the most drought-affected vegetation in southeast Ethiopia. Heavy rains fell in Ethiopia and Somalia in late April, triggering deadly floods [ http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/NaturalHazards/natural_hazards_v2.php3?img_id=12846 ] in southeast Ethiopia. Though tragic, the rains may help alleviate the drought.

East Africa Greens Up from Heavy Rains |
| Description |
After devastating drought in 2005, eastern Africa experienced heavy rains and flooding during the 2006 "short rains" season that usually lasts from around October until December. Somalia, Ethiopia, Kenya, and Tanzania all experienced significant, sometimes deadly, flooding. [ http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/NaturalHazards/natural_hazards_v2.php3?img_id=14026 ] What has been difficult for people and livestock, however, has been good for vegetation, including grazing areas and croplands. The resulting green-up is evident in this image, which compares satellite-observed vegetation in November 2006 to the average November conditions from 2000-2005. Places where vegetation was more luxuriant than normal are shown in green, while places where vegetation conditions were below normal are colored brown. Places near average are yellow. The data were collected by the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) [ http://modis.gsfc.nasa.gov ] on NASA's Terra [ http://terra.nasa.gov ] satellite. Among the most changed areas is Kenya's Eastern province. Both the Marsabit National Reserve, which is next to the Ethiopia border, and the Merti Plateau to its south were dramatically more lush than they were near the end of 2005. [ http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/NaturalHazards/natural_hazards_v2.php3?img_id=13329 ] Evidence of extensive flooding along the Shebele River in southeast Ethiopia (Shabelle in Somalia) is clear: unusually green vegetation traces out the path of the river and several of its tributaries. Although water levels in Lake Victoria have rebounded somewhat from the extremely low levels [ http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/Study/Victoria/ ] measured in 2005, the vegetation in areas surrounding the lake appears to be slower to respond.

Floods in East Africa
| Title |
Floods in East Africa |
| Description |
As East Africa's short rainy season progressed into November, the downpour continued to stress rivers throughout Somalia, Ethiopia, and Kenya. The widespread flooding began with the rains in mid-October, and continued through the end of November when unusually heavy rain fell on drought-hardened earth, said the Famine Early Warning System Network [ http://www.reliefweb.int/rw/RWB.NSF/db900SID/HMYT-6VXLLM?OpenDocument&rc=1&emid=FL-2006-000169-SOM ] (FEWS NET). Between October 1 and November 10, 2006, most regions in southern Somalia received more than 300 percent of their normal rainfall, FEWS Net added. The rain had a dual effect on the land. In the long term, the rains will help the region recover from drought, but in some river basins, the rains triggered floods that destroyed crops. Among the river basins most severely affected by flooding is the Shabeelle River (Shabele River in Ethiopia). The top image, taken by the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS [ http://modis.gsfc.nasa.gov ]) on NASA's Terra [ http://terra.nasa.gov/ ] satellite on November 17, 2006, shows just how much the Shabeelle River had swollen compared to 2005, when the region was in drought. Flooding along this section of the Shabeelle drove 50,000 from their homes in the town of Beletweyne, which was uninhabitable by November 17, said the United Nations. [ http://www.reliefweb.int/rw/RWB.NSF/db900SID/KKEE-6VLP43?OpenDocument&rc=1&emid=FL-2006-000169-SOM ] The floods are visible through scattered clouds, which are pale blue in this image. Water is black, plant-covered land is bright green, and sparsely vegetated land is tan-pink.

Floods in East Africa

Floods in East Africa |
| Description |
December typically marks the end of the short rainy season in eastern Africa. By mid- to late December, the rains subside until March, when the long rainy season begins. Fluctuations in the amount of rain that falls during the short rainy season are normal, and in 2006, the rains were more intense than normal. The heavy rains triggered deadly floods from Somalia to Tanzania. In 2005, by contrast, the rains failed, and drought ensued. The difference between the two years is clearly illustrated by this pair of satellite images, collected by the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS [ http://modis.gsfc.nasa.gov ]) on NASA's Aqua [ http://aqua.nasa.gov/ ] (top image) and Terra [ http://terra.nasa.gov/ ] (lower image) satellites. The images were made with both visible and infrared light to highlight the presence of water of the ground. In this type of image, water is typically black or dark blue, but sediment can give it a lighter color. Clouds are turquoise, plant-covered land is bright green, and bare or sparsely vegetated ground is tan-pink. The rain-induced floods of 2006 were visible in Tanzania on December 4, when MODIS captured the top image. In the image, Tanzania's Wembere River and surrounding waterways are swollen to such an extent that the shores of Lake Kitangiri are swallowed in the floods. According to the United Nations Integrated Regional Information Networks, [ http://allafrica.com/stories/200612050387.html ] floods in this region and the area to its immediate north submerged at least five villages, affecting about 177 people and killing one. A year earlier, on December 1, 2005, the rivers were barely visible, and both Lake Eyasi and Lake Kitangiri were much smaller. In the drought conditions that prevailed in 2005, the land was bare, with little vegetation growing, and skies were relatively clear. The heavy rains that produced floods in 2006 also brought green to the landscape and left large clouds overhead. NASA images created by Jesse Allen, Earth Observatory, using data provided courtesy of the MODIS Rapid Response [ http://rapidfire.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov/ ] team and the Level 1 and Atmospheric Archive Distribution System.

Floods in East Africa

Floods in East Africa |
| Description |
On December 6, 2006, Kenya got a brief respite from the unusually heavy rains that brought deadly floods to the country during November. The break in the clouds afforded the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS [ http://modis.gsfc.nasa.gov ]) on NASA's Aqua [ http://aqua.nasa.gov/ ] satellite this view of the mouth of the Tana River, one of the most severely flooded regions in Kenya. By this time, floodwater from the upper reaches of the river had drained to the river's mouth, causing the floods seen here. Scattered clouds, pale blue in the combination of infrared and visible light used to make the image, float over the swollen river and bright green, plant-covered landscape. The lower image, taken a little over a week earlier on November 27, shows the river before the floods reached this particular section. At that time, the central portions of the river were severely flooded. The floods seen on the Tana River were caused by a combination of torrential rain and a release of water from Kenya's overwhelmed hydroelectric dams, reported the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies. [ http://www.reliefweb.int/rw/RWB.NSF/db900SID/AMMF-6W9H9K?OpenDocument&rc=1&emid=FL-2006-000169-SOM ] People in hundreds of communities along the Tana River were displaced when the river burst its banks. The Tana River was just one of many rivers to burst their banks in East Africa during the short rainy season of 2006. The short rains, which typically run from late October through early December, fell on drought-hardened ground in Ethiopia, Somalia, and Kenya, and gathered into raging floods. As of December 7, the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs [ http://www.alertnet.org/thenews/newsdesk/IRIN/cf7293789b8a679ee1e8c27b46a2040f.htm ] estimated that 1.8 million people had been affected by the flooding in the three countries. Not only had the floods directly damaged homes, businesses, public buildings, and agricultural fields, but they cut off roads and contaminated drinking water. The lack of clean water and access to health care, food, and other supplies may lead to a health crisis, warns the World Health Organization. [ http://www.reliefweb.int/rw/RWB.NSF/db900SID/HMYT-6WAMS2?OpenDocument&rc=1&emid=FL-2006-000169-SOM ] Diseases such as cholera, malaria, diarrhea, and measles have already started to spread among displaced people living in unsanitary conditions with limited access to clean water. Though early December gave the region a break from the rains, more rain and additional flooding were predicted through December.

Floods in East Africa |
| Description |
As the short rainy season in East Africa drew closer to its seasonal end, waters continued to rise on rivers and in wetlands throughout the region. Devastating floods swept through Somalia, Ethiopia, Kenya, and parts of surrounding countries starting at the end of October 2006 and continuing through December, as the short rainy season unleashed unusually heavy rains. According to the United States Agency for International Development, [ http://www.reliefweb.int/rw/RWB.NSF/db900SID/KHII-6WD3QS?OpenDocument&rc=1&emid=FL-2006-000169-SOM ] as many as 1.5 million people have been affected by floods in Kenya, Ethiopia, and Somalia. Though the rainy season typically ends in December, the rains were predicted to continue into January and possibly longer in some regions. The Lotagipi Swamp, in northwestern Kenya and southern Sudan, brimmed with water when the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS [ http://modis.gsfc.nasa.gov ]) on 's Terra [ http://terra.nasa.gov/ ] satellite captured the top image on December 11, 2006. The lower image was acquired a month earlier, when the swamp was relatively dry. Silty water, pale blue, streams through the swamp, with sections of deeper, clear water forming a dark blue boundary on the northern and eastern edges. The Lotagipi Swamp lies in the Ilemi Triangle, [ https://www.cia.gov/cia/publications/factbook/geos/ke.html ] a segment of land that by treaty is in Sudan, but is administered by Kenya. The rain has turned the landscape a vibrant green with the growth of fresh vegetation. Patches of tan indicate areas where few or no plants are growing. Scattered clouds are pale blue and white in this image made from a combination of visible and infrared light. Photo-like, true-color images [ http://rapidfire.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov/subsets/?NAfrica_3_07/2006345 ] of the region are available from the MODIS Rapid Response Team twice daily.
