Assessment of human exposures to natural sources of radiation in Kenya
(1999)
Exposures to various components of the natural background radiation in Kenya were estimated using measured activity concentrations of natural radionuclides and conversion factors. Contributions to the total effective dose ...
Palaeomagnetic results from late Archaean and early proterozoic granites from South Western Kenya
(1989)
Results of a palaeomagnetic study carried out on the Migori granites exposed in the South Western part of Kenya are presented. The granites of Post-Nyanzian and Post-Kavirondian ages are dated at View the MathML source, ...
Environmental Radiation Survey of the Area of High Natural Radioactivity of Mrima Hill of Kenya
(1991)
This report is on radiation contamination mapping of Mrima Hill in Kenya's south coast. A survey, covering the whole hill and the surrounding areas was carried out using a contamination meter. The gamma dose rate is extremely ...
Results of optical, thermomagnetic and electron microprobe analyses of titanomagnetite grains
(1982)
This paper presents results of a study of titanomagnetite from specimens of ten different rock units. The rock units comprise trachytes, basalts, ignimbrites, nephelinites, olivine melanephelinites and welded tuffs from ...
Paleomagnetic results from the Narosura and Magadi volcanics of Kenya
(1979)
Results of a paleomagnetic study carried out on the exposed volcanic rocks on the western side of the South Kenya Rift Valley are presented. Nine stratigraphic groups ranging in age from Miocene to Pleistocene were sampled. ...
Natural Radioactivity in Some Building Materials in Kenya and the Contributions to the Indoor External Doses
(1997)
Against a background of growing concern over the health risks associated with exposure to natural sources of radiation, a study has been carried out in Kenya in which the activity concentrations of the major radionuclides ...
Modeling the 2-D seismic velocity structure across the Kenya rift
(1994)
A 460-km-long seismic refraction/wide-angle reflection profile across the East African rift in Kenya has been interpreted using a travel-time inversion method to calculate a two-dimensional crustal and uppermost mantle ...
