Fault-controlled fluid migration during early-stage continental rifting in the Magadi Basin, Kenya
(University of Nairobi, 2014)The mechanisms controlling the migration of mantle-derived, CO2-rich fluids in early-stage continental rifts are poorly constrained, yet have important implications for processes occurring during the initiation of continental ... -
Feasibility of chemometrics assisted exploration and management of geothermal resources in the Kenya rift system utilizing stable isotope and related measurements
(University of Nairobi, 2013)The utility of isotopes is more effective if combined with chemical monitoring. Trace radiogenic and element characteristics of geothermal field matrices associated with the high background radiation areas (HBRA) of Kenya ... -
