The effect of malaria parasite infection on the feeding behaviour and gonotrophic cycle of anopheline mosquitoes in Kisumu area, western Kenya.
(1990)
studies were carried out in Kisian area with the
objective of observing the influence of malaria parasite
infection on the feeding behaviour and fecundity of wild
anopheline mosquitoes. Five anopheline species; ...

(1991)
This thesis describes the results of a hydrogeological project carried out in Kidiani
Area of Kwale District, about 60 kilometres south-west of Mornbasa.
With a view to evaluate the groundwater potential in Kidiani Area, ...
Some aspects of hydrochemistry, lake level and vegetation dynamics in the lake Elementeita basin, Rift valley, Kenya
(University of Nairobi, 1991)
Some aspects of water chemistry, vegetation structure and water level
fluctuations of the Lake Elementeita drainage basin in Kenya's Rift Valley
were studied. The analysis of water samples showed that the lake was ...
Sero-epidemiological studies of malaria in pregnant women and newborns from western Kenya
(1994)
A sero-epidemiological longitudinal study of the impact of plasmodial infections on pregnancy was undertaken in a holoendemic area of western Kenya. The study involved a cohort of 393 pregnant women followed prospectively ...
Mathematical modelling of the Olkaria Geothermal Reservoir
(1996)
The basic equations which govern the flow of fluids in a geothermal
reservoir (often a two-phase mixture of steam. and water) are outlined. The
governing nonlinear system of partial differential equations that arises ...
Temporal synthesis of cuticle proteins during larval development in the tsetse fly, glossina morsitans morsitans
(University of Nairobi, 1992)
The tsetse fly is an insect of great economic importance to man as a
vector of both human and animal trypanosomiasis.
The important functions of the cuticle are support, including muscle
attachment, protection, and ...
Regionalisation of seismic velocities for precise earthquake localisations in Kenya.
(1996)
The essential part of this study has involved the determination of seismic velocities for
different regional waves using natural earthquake data. The analysis was based on
available catalogues. The whole territory of ...
