Distribution of glycerol diakyl glycerol tetraethers in surface soil and crater lake sediments from mount Kenya, East Africa
(University of Nairobi, 2013-12-13)
Glycerol diakyl glycerol tetraethers (GDGTs), a palaeoclimate proxy based on the relative abundance of lipids produced by archaea and bacteria, is gaining wide acceptance for the determination of past temperature and pH ...
What was the source of magnetic field measured by pioneer V in 1960
(University of Nairobi, 2013-11)
The engulfment of Pioneer V with solar plasma on March 30, 1960, and the later measurement of high interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) by the probe were interpreted as of solar origin. Studies and analysis of that event ...
Aerosol Transport Over Equatorial Africa
(1999)
Long-range and inter-hemispheric transport of atmospheric aerosols over equatorial Africa has received little attention so far. Most aerosol studies in the region have focussed on emissions from rain forest and savanna ...
Indoor Radon (222 Rn) Levels In Coastal And Rift Valley Regions Of Kenya
(2002)
Measurements of indoor radon levels by electret technique in Coastal and Rift Valley Region of Kenya are reported. The results indicate a large variation in the concentrations (5 - 704 Bq rn') and that remedial action is ...
Airflow Distribution through the Radiator of a Typical Australian Passenger Car
(2004)
The airflow distribution and non-uniformity across the radiator of
a full-size, Australian made Ford falcon was tested at the RMIT
Industrial Wind Tunnel. The cooling air intakes of the vehicle
were shielded by a quarter, ...
Spatio-Temporal Knowledge Representation and Analysis for Earthquake Disaster Management
(2001)
This paper examines the importance of integrating different spatial and temporal knowledge representations
in order to structure disaster relevant information. Special focus is made here on the human-machine
interface. ...
