Macrofauna Settlement on Pearl Oyster Collectors in Kenya: Seasonality and Abundance
(Kenya Marine and Fisheries Research InstituteDepartment of Zoology, University of Nairobi, 2008)—Collection of pearl oyster seed using artificial collectors is a critical step in the production of cultured pearls. This paper reports the seasonal abundance of macrofauna, which settled on spat collectors set to ... -
Macroinvertebrate fauna of water hyacinth in the Kenyan waters of Lake Victoria.
(School of Biological Sciences, 2000)The macro-invertebrate fauna on water hyacinth in Kenyan waters of Lake Victoria was surveyed by collecting samples from 5 major ecological zones of the lake. Insecta, Oligochaeta, Hirudinea, Arachnida, Gastropoda and ... -

The MacVuti sampler: a new and inexpensive volume sampler for plankton and water
(WileyDepartment of Zoology, University of Nairobi, Nairobi, Kenya, 1985)Details are presented for the construction and operation of a cheap simple volume sampler for Zooplankton and water. This sampler has been used in waters up to 45 m deep over a number of years and proved to be reliable and ... -

Magnetic and Paleomagnetic Studies of the Nipissing Diabase, Lake Matinenda Area, Ontario
(1974)Samples of the Nipissing diabase were collected for rock-magnetic and paleomagnetic studies around and west of Lake Matinenda, Ontario. The specimens have been classified into three groups, based on their stability of ... -
Magnetic Decay in a Hollow Elliptic Cylinder. II
(University of Nairobi, 1966)Earlier results for the relaxation time of an axial magnetic field in a conducting hollow elliptic cylinder are extended to the case of eccentricities near unity. -

Magnetic Grains in Bombay Columnar Basalts
(University of Nairobi, 1971-11)THE origin of columnar jointing in basalt has been discussed by several authors1, but the origin of many features of the columnar basalts is still controversial. Some magnetic studies of individual columns have been made ... -
Magnetic properties of iron nanoparticle
(University of Nairobi, 2010)Magnetic properties of Fe nanoparticles with different sizes synthesized by a physical deposition technique have been investigated experimentally. We have used a high pressure sputtering technique to deposit iron nanoparticles ... -

Magnitude and Direction of Thermal Diffusion of Colloidal Particles Measured by Thermal Field-Flow Fractionation
(Department of Chemistry, 2003-10)In this paper we provide experimental evidence showing that various types of submicrometer-sized particles (latexes, inorganic, and metallic), suspended in either aqueous or nonaqueous carrier liquids to which a temperature ... -
Magnitudes Of Climate Variability And Changes Over The Arid And Semi-Arid Lands Of Kenya Between 1961 And 2013 Period
(University of Nairobi, 2018)The magnitude and trend of temperature and rainfall extremes as indicators of climate variability and change were investigated in the Arid and Semi-Arid Lands (ASALs) of Kenya using in-situ measurements and gridded climate ... -
