(University of NairobiDepartment of Geology, 1982)The aeromagnetic survey of the Jombo Hill Area conducted in l977 revealed an anomaly of 2000 gammas in amplitude in the area of the intrusive rocks. This value gtands,out as one of the highest values ever recorded in Kenya. ... -
Green synthesis of Iron Nanoparticles on chamomile inbuilt templates
(University of Nairobi, 2014)This work reports the synthesis of polydisperse, iron nanoparticles (FeNPs) stabilized on Chamomile polyols template. Chamomile extracts at temperatures 25, 50, 75, 90°c were used. The characteristics of the ‘green synthesis’ ... -
Greenhouse Gas and Particulate Emissions and Impacts from Cooking Technologies in Africa
(2003)In much of Africa, the largest fraction of energy consumption occurs within the residential sector and is derived primarily from woodfuels burned in simple stoves with poor combustion characteristics. Many of the products ... -
Greenhouse gas emissions and energy balances of jatropha biodiesel as an alternative fuel in Tanzania
(2013)This paper evaluates GHG emissions and energy balances (i.e. net energy value (NEV), net renewable energy value (NREV) and net energy ratio (NER)) of jatropha biodiesel as an alternative fuel in Tanzania by using life cycle ... -

Ground subsidence and its socio-economic implications on the population: A case study of Nakuru area in Central Rift Valley, Kenya
(2000)Several areas of Nakuru Town and its environs often undergo subsidence along the parallel fault zones during and after heavy rainfall. During the rainy season, when most of the subsidence occurs, the overlying unconsolidated ... -
Ground Thermal Profiles from Mount Kenya, East Africa
(University of Nairobi, 2004-06)This paper presents and compares ground thermal regimes at 4200 and 4800 m a.s.l. on Mount Kenya's southern aspect. Temperatures were recorded using Tinytalk™ data loggers, installed at the ground surface and at depths of ... -
Groundwater hydrodynamics of an Eastern Africa coastal aquifer during the recent La Niña 2016-17 drought
(University of Nairobi, 2019)In 2016-17 much of East Africa was affected by a severe drought which has been attributed to Indian Ocean Dipole and El Niño Southern Oscillation conditions. Extreme events such as this have immediate and knock-on effects ... -
