Spatial Durbin Model for Poverty Mapping and Analysis
(University of Nairobi., 2008)
The use of spatial regression models for describing and explaining spatial data variation in
poverty mapping has become an increasingly important tool. This study considered the
spatial Durbin model (SDM) in identifying ...
Sources of heavy metal input into Winam Gulf, Kenya
(Department of Chemistry, 2008)
Water and surface sediment from rivers Kisat, Nyamasaria, Nyando, Sondu-Miriu, Kuja, Awach, Yala, and Nzoia, which flow into Winam Gulf, were analyzed for heavy metals in order to assess the influence of the catchment ...
Concentration - dependent parsimonious releaser roles of gregarious male pheromone of desert locust, Schistocerca gregaria
(2008)
The responses of (i) groups of crowd-reared mature males of desert locust, Schistocerca gregaria to a choice of two columns of air, one permeated with different concentrations of phenylacetonitrile (PAN), the major component ...
Rainfall influences on ungulate population abundance in the Mara-Serengeti ecosystem.
(University of Nairobi, 2008)
1. Rainfall is the prime climatic factor underpinning the dynamics of African savanna ungulates, but no study has analysed its influence on the abundance of these ungulates at monthly to multiannual time scales. 2. We ...
Dynamics of topsoil carbon and nitrogen along a tropical forest–cropland chronosequence: Evidence from stable isotope analysis and spectroscopy
(Elsevier, 2008)
Analyses of δ13C and δ15N abundances and near infrared reflectance spectroscopy (NIRS) were used to evaluate the changes in SOC and total nitrogen (TN) content along a forest–cropland chronosequence in the margins of ...
Effect of chemical spray on insect pests and yield quality of food grain legumes
(2008)
Phaseolus vulgaris L. var. GLP 2), the lima bean (Phaseolus lunatus L.), the green gram (Vigna radiate L.), the lablab (Lablab purpureus L.) and the chickpea (Cicer arietinum). The experimental design was a randomized ...
