Potential of gdgts as temperature proxies along altitudinal transects in East Africa
(University of Nairobi, 2014-05)
Glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraethers (GDGTs) are lipids of high molecular weight and include the isoprenoid GDGTs (iGDGTs) produced by Archaea and the branched GDGTs (brGDGTs) produced by unknown bacteria. Several indices ...
Distribution of glycerol diakyl glycerol tetraethers in surface soil and crater lake sediments from mount Kenya, East Africa
(University of Nairobi, 2013-12-13)
Glycerol diakyl glycerol tetraethers (GDGTs), a palaeoclimate proxy based on the relative abundance of lipids produced by archaea and bacteria, is gaining wide acceptance for the determination of past temperature and pH ...
What was the source of magnetic field measured by pioneer V in 1960
(University of Nairobi, 2013-11)
The engulfment of Pioneer V with solar plasma on March 30, 1960, and the later measurement of high interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) by the probe were interpreted as of solar origin. Studies and analysis of that event ...
