A Framework for Integrating Indigenous Knowledge With Wireless Sensors in Predicting Droughts in Africa. In Proceedings Indigenous Knowledge Technology Conference 2011
(School of Computing and Informatics, 2011)Unlike in other parts of the world, droughts are the leading natural disasters in Africa; they account for over 90% of effects perpetuated by natural disasters. The problem is compounded by the fact that droughts form a ... -
A Framework for Predicting Droughts in DevelopingCountries Using Sensor Networks and Mobile Phones
(School of Computing and Informatics, 2010)Drought is the most complex and least understood of all naturaldisasters and it affects more people than any other hazard.Droughts have become synonymous with the developingcountries and in particular the Sub-Saharan Africa ... -

Fundamental Concepts in Seasonal Prediction and Current State of Seasonal Prediction, Science and Technology
(Department of Meteorology, 1999)Western Kenya, which comprise the highlands west of the Rift Valley and the Lake Victoria basin, receive substantial amount of rainfall almost throughout the year. This region has therefore a high agricultural potential. ... -
Fungicidal and molluscicidal saponins from Dolichos kilimandscharicus
(Elsevier, 1988)Three saponins with molluseicidal and fungicidal activities have been isolated from the roots of Dolichos kilimandscharicus. They were shown to be the 3-O-β-d-glucopyranosides of hederagenin, bayogenin and medicagenic acid. -
