Cost sharing in public universities: a Kenyan case study
(University of Nairobi, 1997)
This case study posits a model of key policy issues in the cost and financing of University Education. Within this framework we review government policy and existing cost sharing mechanisms. This is then analysed within ...
Coastal Tidally-driven Circulation and the Role of Water Exchange in the Linkage Between Tropical Coastal Ecosystems
(1997)
Water circulation and exchange processes in a shallow, semi-enclosed tropical bay were studied in southern Kenya (Gazi Bay) through measurements of tidal elevations, salinity, temperature, dissolved oxygen and current ...
Effect of organic and chemical fertilization on the distribution of soil predacious mites and nematodes in a citrus orchard.
(University of Nairobi, 1997)

The KRISP 94 lithospheric investigation of southern Kenya — the experiments and their main results
(1997)
Following two previous experiments in 1985 (KRISP 85) and 1989–1990 (KRISP 90), a series of geophysical experiments was undertaken in 1993–1995 (KRISP 94) to study the lithospheric structure of the southern Kenya rift down ...
The influence of pre-existing structures on the evolution of the southern Kenya Rift Valley — evidence from seismic and gravity studies
(1997)
The Kenya Rift is an active continental rift that has developed since the Late Oligocene. Although a thermal origin for the rifting episode is indicated by the scale of volcanism and its relative timing with uplift and ...
Diterpenes from the leaf exudate of Psiadia punctulata
(1997)
Two known diterpenes, (ent)-2-oxokaur-16-en-18,19-diol (psiadin) and (ent)-kaur-16-en-2α,18,19-triol, and three novel diterpenes, (ent)-16β,17-dihydroxykauran-20-oic acid, 2-oxotrachyloban-18,19-diol and trachyloban-2β,6β,19-triol ...
Effects of Tsetse DNA Virus Infection on the Survival of a Host Fly,Glossina morsitans centralis(Diptera; Glossinidae)
(University of Nairobi, 1997-05)
Freshly deposited third instarGlossina morsitans centralislarvae were infected with the tsetse DNA virus by microinjection. At emergence comparative observations were made on longevity and feeding behavior of infected and ...
Synoptic-scale fluctuations of total ozone in the atmosphere
(1997)
A model, based on ozone-concentration tendency equation, is developed to study synoptic ozone-column variations. The application is referred to a middle-latitude site and to an atmospheric layer extending from the surface ...
