(University of NairobiSchool of Biological Sciences, 2011)This study was carried out to analyze the energy use patterns at a Tobacco Green Leaf Threshing Plant (GLT) in order to understand energy consumption trends and patterns. The main aim of this was to identify energy ... -
A Study Of Evaporation Pan Factoring At Katumani In Kenya
(University of NairobiDepartment of Meteorology, 1983)Evaporation of water from a pan (Ep) is an energy driven process which integrates the effects of weather factors, notably solar radiation, temperature , wind and humidity. In their utilization of water (Evapotranspiration or ... -
A study of factors determining allocation of public funds in Kenya
(University of Nairobi, 2012)Allocation of public funds to various Regions/ Provinces of Kenya is very unequal since the colonial period in the Kenyan history. The colonial government allocated public funds to various regions in Kenya during colonial ... -
A study of fish community structure and distribution in the River Sabaki estuary, Kenya
(Department of zoology, University of Nairobi, 2004)Fish was sampled within the Sabaki River estuary for a period of 6 months (January to June 2003) on monthly basis, during the last quarter of the lunar cycle (neap tide) at low water tide. The physico-chemical parameters ... -
Study of groundwater distribution in Nairobi urban using geoelectrical method
(Department of Geology, University of Nairobi, 2001)The Nairobi area is covered by a succession of lavas and pyroclastics of Cainozoic age, These lavas are genetically associated with the rift tectonic movements. Generally, these rocks form good aquifers where they ... -
A Study of Hydroxyl (Oh) Maser Variability in Ngc 6334I
(university of nairobi, 2019)The Cat’s Paw Nebula is part of our host Milky Way galaxy which experienced a significant assumed accretion event resulting in highly variable hydroxyl, water and methanol masers. Not only were these masers variable in ... -
