Hyperspectral remote sensing of evaporate minerals and associated sediments in Lake Magadi area, Kenya
(University of Nairobi, 2012-02)
Pleistocene to present evaporitic lacustrine sediments in Lake Magadi, East African Rift Valley, Kenya were studied and mapped using spectral remote sensing methods. This approach incorporated surface mineral mapping using ...
Quantifying the intensity of permethrin insecticide resistance in Anopheles mosquitoes in western Kenya.
(University of Nairobi, 2017)
BACKGROUND:
The development and spread of resistance among local vectors to the major classes of insecticides used in Long-Lasting Insecticidal Nets (LLINs) and Indoor Residual Spraying (IRS) poses a major challenge to ...

Transport Mechanism in TiO2/In(OH)xSy/Pb(OH)xSy/PEDOT:PSS eta Solar Cell
(2015)
Transport mechanism studies in TiO2/In(OH)xSy/Pb(OH)xSy/PEDOT:PSS eta solar cell have been carried
out. The characterizations have been performed both in the dark and under varying illumination intensity
for temperature ...
Absorption of Congo red dye from aqueous solutions using roots of eichhornia crassipes: kinetic and equilibrium studies
(University of Nairobi, 2014)
Absorption of Congo red (CR) from aqueous solution using dried roots of Eichhornia crassipes was studied. Batch experiments were carried out for sorption kinetics and isotherms. Experimental results obtained showed that ...
Implementation of Digital Village Projects in Developing Countries - Case of Kenya
(2014)
This paper looked at the implementation of Digital Village Projects (DVPs) in Kenya and
the constraints that hinder the successful implementation of these projects. DVPs like any
other Information and Communication ...
Intelligent System for Predicting Agricultural Drought for Maize Crop
(International journal of technology enhancements and emerging engineering research, 2014)
There has been little information in regard to agricultural drought prediction. This paper aimed at coming up with an efficient and intelligent agricultural drought prediction system.
By using a case study approach and ...
Molecular Investigation into a Malaria Outbreak in Cusco, Peru: Plasmodium falciparum BV1 Lineage is Linked to a Second Outbreak in Recent Times
(2016)
In November 2013, a Plasmodium falciparum malaria outbreak of 11 cases occurred in Cusco, southern Peru, where falciparum malaria had not been reported since 1946. Although initial microscopic diagnosis reported only ...
Spatially variable risk factors for malaria in a geographically heterogeneous landscape, western Kenya: an explorative study
(2016)
Background
Large reductions in malaria transmission and mortality have been achieved over the last decade, and this has mainly been attributed to the scale-up of long-lasting insecticidal bed nets and indoor residual ...
On the effects of random forces in non uniformly distributed dynamical system
(University of Nairobi, 2010)
Interaction of a dynamical system with stochastic source R(t) is studied using parabolic type equation on a circle of length 2L.Greens function for the system is constructed and it is shown that almost all the correlation ...
