The Malawi University of Science and Technology (MUST), just like many other public institutions in Malawi, is faced with an energy deficit as well as waste management challenges. The institution’s …

Most of the developing countries confront a challenge of lack of access to consistent electricity supply service. Usually, the common affected sites are rural and peri-urban areas since they occur …

Remote sensing stands to be the most vibrant method that provides real time and large area data. It is more advantageous in drought monitoring than traditional methods. In instances, meteorological …

Landslides pose a major threat to communities in mountainous regions, especially in developing countries like Malawi, where disaster risk management is hindered by weak institutional capacity and limited data. The …

This study assessed the impact of Land Use and Land Cover Changes (LULCC) on increasing landslide risk in Ndirande Township, Malawi, utilizing Geographic Information Systems (GIS), remote sensing, and the …

Floods are among the most destructive natural hazards in Malawi, and rural areas like Traditional Authority (T/A) Pemba in Salima District are particularly susceptible due to low elevation, high rainfall, …

This study investigates the integration of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and Remote Sensing (RS) technologies for identifying suitable sites for irrigation development in Kasungu District, Malawi, a region increasingly affected …
