Lake Masinga
- Men built a dam across R.Tana
- Water accumulated on the upstream side of the barrier.
- This resulted in a man-made lake called Lake Masinga.
Lake Kanyaboli
- The river Yala began meandering on the flood plain
- Intense lateral erosion took place on the concave bank
- On the convex bank deposition was taking place and this caused narrowing of land separating the two concave banks
- Eventually the two concave banks joined causing the river to take a short-cut cutting off an ox-bow lake called LakeKanyaboli
