(University of Nairobi, 1997)
Different trap designs and colours were tested for G. swynnertoni. A turquoise blue colour variation of the Siamese trap was adopted as the standard for sampling.
Further trap tests showed the turquoise blue Triangular ...
Sulphur dioxide measurements in Nairobi
(1997)
Sulphur dioxide in ambient air at Nairobi's major Industrial area and its environs was measured
using pararosaniline method. In this study, concentrations for a period of six months (June -
November, 1993) at six sampling ...
Generalised matrix and compartmental population models
(1997)
The present thesis is concerned with the development of mathematical models
for structured population species. The structuring or classification may be due to
age, stage of development or a combination of both in a more ...
Stabilization of polyaniline films by Surface attachment of oxidizable Substrates
(1997)
Cyclic Voltammetry was used to study the Electrochemical properties of PAminophenol
on a Polyaniline modified carbon electrode surface. The resilts reveal
reversible redox waves. The quinone derivatives formed frop ...
Optical, electrical and structural properties of zinc stannate (zn2sn04) thin films prepared by spray pyrolysis technique.
(1997)
Highly transparent and conducting Zn2Sn04 films have been
prepared by spray pyrolysis technique. Films grown at a substrate
temperature of 440°C exhibit the best optical and electrical
properties. The microcrystals of ...

Distribution, Abundance And Composition Of Zooplankton Along Three Transects, Off The Kenyan Coast
(University of Nairobi, 1997)
Zooplankton was collected along three transects perpendicular to the coast usmg a
Multiplankton sampler fitted with 200 11mmesh size nets. These transects were located Gazi (4°

Sources Of Dissolved Inorganic Nutrient Fluxes In The Gazi Bay And Implications For Coastal Ecosystems
(University of Nairobi, 1997)
Nutrient fluxes of dissolved NI-I/, N02-, N03-, P043- and Si(OH)4 in the water column and nearshore sediments were measured in situ in the Mangrove, Seagrass and Coral reef biotopes of the Gazi Bay. The measurements were ...
