The Mainstreaming of Climate Change and Variability Information into Planning and Policy Development for Africa
(University of Nairobi, 2010)
The economies of Africa, however, are predominantly dependent on rainfed agriculture and the associated industries. Current and future sustainable socio-economic development of the African nations will therefore heavily ...
Integrating meteorological and indigenous knowledge-based seasonal climate forecasts for the agricultural sector
(University of Nairobi, 2010)
Uptake and distribution of selected heavy metals by sweet potato plant varieties under green house conditions
(2010)
The extent to which cadmium, chromium, lead and zinc ions were absorbed and trans-located into
roots, stems and leaves of different sweet potato (Ipomea batatas) plant varieties from their
respective metal solutions was studied.
A Framework for Distributed Learning Objects Repository.
(University of Nairobi, 2010)
Generalized relativistic dynamics in a non-inertial reference frame
(2010)
Generalized relativistic field equations have been derived for dynamics in a non-inertial reference frame interpreted as a Finsler space where events are specified by both spacetime coordinates and corresponding velocities ...
Laparoscopic versus open distal pancreatectomy in pancreatic tumours: a case–control study
(2010)
Laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy has become an increasingly used procedure in the surgical treatment of benign or borderline cystic and endocrine tumours. The feasibility and safety of this technique is well known but ...
Observations on the Low-Energy Limits for Metal-to-Ligand Charge-Transfer Excited-State Energies of Ruthenium(II) Polypyridyl Complexes
(2010)
The 77 K emission spectral maxima of bis(bipyridine)ruthenium(II) complexes are found to approach a limit at energies below about 14 000 cm−1. There is also evidence for related low-energy excited-state limits in some other ...
Total pancreatectomy: indications, operative technique, and results
(2010)
The aims of this study were to identify the indications to perform a total pancreatectomy and to evaluate the outcome and quality of life of the patient who underwent this operation. A retrospective analysis of a prospective ...
Effects of Electronic Mixing in Ruthenium(II) Complexes with Two Equivalent Acceptor Ligands. Spectroscopic, Electrochemical, and Computational Studies
(2010)
The lowest energy metal to ligand charge transfer (MLCT) absorption bands found in ambient solutions of [Ru(NH3)4(Y-py)2]2+ and [Ru(L)2(bpy)2]+ complexes (Y-py a pyridine ligand and (L)n a substituted acetonylacetonate, ...
