A Wedding Without Music.
(University of Nairobi, 1992)
Flavonoids of polygonum Senegalense part iii: Isolation of dihydrochalcone glucoside and quercetin glucosides
(1994)
The internal tissue flavonoids of P. senegalense are glycosides, based mostly on
quercetin. Chromatography on silica gel and Sephadex LH-20 of the hydrophilic extract resulted
in the isolation and characterizationof ...
The influence of sublethal doses of insecticides on the reproduction of glossina-pallidipes austen and glossina morsitans morsitans westwood (Diptera: Glossinidae)
(1992)
Insecticides utilised in the field to control tsetse flies often do not reach
their targets in sufficient quantities to kill them. The effects of such sublethal
doses on the reproduction of these flies is therefore ...
The hydrological characteristics of the arid and semi-arid parts of Kenya
(1993)
The purpose of the study was to investigate the
hydrological characteristics of the arid and semi-arid
lands (ASAL) of Kenya with a view of establishing the water
resources potential of ephemeral streams in providing
...
The flood hazard in the lower reaches of the Sondu/Miriu river
(University of Nairobi, 1990)
This dissertation is on the flood hazard on the River Sondu
floodplain which is structurally continuous with the Kano Plains in
Kisumu District. The incidence of floods has become greater in the
recent past.
First, the ...
Space-time characteristics of streamflow in Kenya
(1998)
The major objective of this study was to determine the homogeneous
hydrological divisions through space-time analysis of stream flow and to develop the
best forecasting and flood prediction regional model. The homogeneous ...
Numerical simulation of the planetary boundary layer over Kenya using a meso-scale model
(1992)
A two dimensional dry meso-scale numerical model has
been used to simulate the growth of the Planetary
Boundary Layer (PBL) over Kenya. The model is
primitive equation hydrostatic, uses a terrain following
vertical ...
Numerical simulation of the influence of the sea surface temperature anomalies on the east African seasonal :rainfall
(1994)
In this study, the relationship between the Sea Surface Temperature (SST) anomaly
patterns and the interannual variability of both the Long Rains (March to May) and the
Short Rains (October to December) over East Africa ...
Growth and properties of zinc oxide films prepared by chemical vapor deposition and their applications in solar energy utilization
(University of Nairobi, 1993)
Transparent and conducting thin ZnO films have been prepared by
chemical vapour deposition method. The growth parameters have been
optimized and optical and electrical properties of the films studied.
The effects of ...
