Identification of Night-Time F-Region Currents from CHAMP Satellite Observations over Equatorial Africa
(University of Nairobi, 2013)
The F-region currents are generally weak and difficult to detect. However, their contributions to the earth’s magnetic field variations are significant and cannot be ignored by the field modelers. CHAMP satellite has ...
Mathematical Models For Human And Baboon Brain Parameters
(2013)
In this paper linear measurements from ten human and ten baboon brains were used to predict various values for human and baboon brain and body parameters, through multiple regression models. Inter-species values were also ...
Observed Similarity In Satellite Derived Total Column Ozone Data And Ground Based Dobson And Ozonesonde Over Nairobi Kenya

This study sought comparison of satellite total column Ozone data from 1985 to 2003
against ground based Dobson spectrophotometer and Ozonesonde data. The area of study
was Nairobi and the main objective was to ascertain ...
Genetic Variation in Rhipicephalus appendiculatus (Acari: Ixodidae) Populations in Kenya, Assessed by two-Dimensional Gel Electrophoresis
(2013)
The study of protein variation is an indirect, relatively
inexpensive approach to genetic analysis. In this study, the protein
profiles of two distinct populations of the brown ear tick (Rhipicephalus
appendiculatus) ...
