dc.description.abstract | The eastern gulf shores of Lake Victoria is an old lacustrine valley of Pleistocene period which has since been filled with alluvial and colluvial sediments derived from the surrounding volcanic hills and scaps to form a major plain. This plain slopes very gently into the lake. It is surrounded by Nandi Escarpment to the north Nyabando Escarpment to the south and volcanic hills to the east and North West. | en |
