The Hominin Sites and Paleolakes Drilling Project (HSPDP): Understanding the paleoenvironmental and paleoclimatic context of human origins through continental
(2015)
The influence of climate and environmental history on human evolution is an existential question that continues to
be hotly debated, in part because of the paucity of high resolution records collected in close proximity ...
Synthesis, physical and electrochemical characterization of mono- and heterobinuclear m -functionalized iron(III) Schiff base complexes
(University of Nairobi, 2012-04)
Mo(NO)T p * Cl2 (T p * = 3,5-dimethyl pyrazole) when reacted with m-functionalized Fe(III) Schiff base complexes; the Schiff base ligands being derived from condensation of 2,4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde or salicylaldehyde ...
Atmospheric divergence over equatorial East Africa and its influence on distribution of rainfall
(University of Nairobi, 2015)
Spatial and temporal variability of divergence is analysed over equatorial East Africa. According to the analysis, seasonal march of upper level divergence is bimodal. There is peak upper level divergence during March-April-May ...
Evaluation of Geophagia as a Pathway for Internal Exposure to Ionizing Radiation
(University of Nairobi, 2015)
Geophagia, the deliberate ingestion of soil, is a complex eating habit found among animals and human beings around the world. Among other reasons soil ingestion is perceived as a source of essential mineral supplements, ...

The characteritics of the turbidity maximum zone in a shallow, well-flushed Sabaki Estuary in Kenya
(2015)
The spatial-temporal variability and the behavior of the Estuarine Turbidity Maximum (ETM) zone in the shallow, ephemeral, well-flushed Sabaki estuary located in the northern region of the Kenya coast, were studied during ...
Radiation Acts on the Microenvironment to Affect Breast Carcinogenesis by Distinct Mechanisms that Decrease Cancer Latency and Affect Tumor Type
(2011)
Tissue microenvironment is an important determinant of carcinogenesis. We demonstrate that ionizing radiation, a known carcinogen, affects cancer frequency and characteristics by acting on the microenvironment. Using a ...
Development of Decision Support Tool for Kenya's Coastal Zone Management
(, 2010-01-01)
Coastal management is critical in view of the danger posed to coastal communition es by flooding from the sea due to storm surges, sea-level rise and Tsunamis. The low-lying Kenyan coast is vulnerable to these hazards, ...
