The Palaeomagnetism of some Scottish Tertiary Dykes and their Baked Contacts
(University of Nairobi, 1964)This paper presents results of measurements of the directions of magnetization of dyke samples and the associated baked sediments collected from Ayrshire in Scotland. The results suggest that these reversely and normally ... -

The palaeomagnetism of the Ethiopian flood basalt succession near Addis Ababa
(University of Nairobi, 1970-01-22)Measurements on samples from 20 sites in the Ethiopian flood basalt succession yield a palaeomagnetic pole at 80.8° N, 167.7° E with a circle of confidence of 4.3°. The pole for these rocks is significantly different from ... -
The Palaeomagnetism of the Kisii Series, Western Kenya
(University of Nairobi, 1971-12-17)The Precambrian Kisii Series in Western Kenya is unmetamorphosed and contains andesites, rhyolites, quartzites and basalts. The basalts, for which a minimum K-Ar age of 930 My is cited, were sampled at 15 sites, and after ... -
Palaeomagnetism of the tororo ring complex, S.E. Uganda
(University of Nairobi, 1973)Palaeomagnetic measurements on the pre-Miocene carbonatite volcanics of Tororo, S.E. Uganda, have yielded a pole at 75.8°N, 195.5°E with A95 = 9.4°. Along with the Tertiary poles from East African rift systems, the ... -
Palatal analysis and osteology of the hard palate of the Kenyan African skulls.
(Department of Human Anatomy, University of Nairobi, 1984)One hundred twenty-five dry skulls from Kenya that consisted of about 90% Bantu individuals were examined to obtain data on the gross anatomy of the hard palate. The palatine index showed that 43.2% of the total sample of ... -
The Paleoecology and Paleogeographic context of Lemudong
(University of NairobiFaculty of Arts, 2007)The Lemudong’o Formation in the Narok District of Kenya comprises a 135-m-thick series of predominantly lacustrine and lake basin margin sedimentary rocks with interstratified primary and reworked tuffs. The formation, ... -
The Paleoecology and Paleogeographic context of Lemudongo locality 1, a late Miocene terrestrial fossil site in southern Kenya
(Department of Geology, University of Nairobi, 2007)The Lemudongo Formation in the Narok District of Kenya comprises a 135-mthick series of predominantly lacustrine and lake basin margin sedimentary rocks with interstratified primary and reworked tuffs. The formation, ... -
Paleomagnetic of the Still Water Complex , Beartooth Mountains, Montana, U.S.A.,
(University of Nairobi,Department of Physics, 1983) -
Paleomagnetic results from the Narosura and Magadi volcanics of Kenya
(Department of Physics, University of Nairobi, 1979)Results of a paleomagnetic study carried out on the exposed volcanic rocks on the western side of the South Kenya Rift Valley are presented. Nine stratigraphic groups ranging in age from Miocene to Pleistocene were sampled. ... -

The paleomagnetism of the Turkana lavas
(University of Nairobi, 1966-02)Directions of magnetizations obtained after cleaning the Miocene lavas from northwest Kenya are presented. The pole position thus obtained, together with similar data from eastern Africa, indicates that no significant ... -

Palliative care research in Africa: consensus building for a prioritized agenda.
(University of Nairobi, 2014-02)CONTEXT: Palliative care research in Africa is in its relative infancy, with dedicated financial support extremely limited. Therefore, setting research priorities to optimize use of limited resources is imperative. OBJ ... -
Palpable discrete breast masses in young women: Two of the components of the modified triple test may be adequate.
(Medicine, University of Nairobi, 2013)Background. Palpable breast masses in young women, though usually benign, are a common source of anxiety. Current practice is assessment using the modified triple test (MTT). This entails clinical breast examination (CBE), ... -
