Kakamega forest is one of the remnants of the equatorial guineo rainforest in the Eastern fringes of Africa. It was perhaps cut-off from the Congo region in the early volcanic era when the Great Rift Valley was formed. ...

Nutrient enrichment is one of the most serious threats to wetland ecosystems. Information is lacking, particularly concerning the response of wetland plants species in Kenya in regard to nutrient enrichment of wetlands. ...

We construct integral operators associated with strongly continuous groups of invertible isometries on the Hardy spaces and the weighted Bergman spaces of the upper half plane. Specifically, we obtain the spectrum and point ...

This paper considers both direct and indirect contributions of livestock to food security in semi-arid parts of Nyakach. Livestock production is a major component of the agricultural economy of developing countries and ...

A soil-borne microbial community isolated from a contaminated site was previously shown to mineralize 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene (1,2,4-TCB) under aerobic conditions. The key degrader in this community was identified as ...

The impact of anthropogenic activities within Bomet and Mulot towns on water quality of Amala and Nyangores tributaries of Mara River, Kenya was assessed using a combination of solid waste, physico-chemical parameters ...

Ecosystems provide essential services like water regulation and other processes which sustain and fulfill human life by directly or indirectly supporting humans‟ survival and quality of life. However, there is insufficient ...

A number of scholars agree that frequent cultivation raises soil bulk density through compaction and destruction of soil structure. However, no research has been conducted to establish how the intensity of farmland cultivated ...

Few studies have attempted to identify factors that contribute to aboveground carbon offset additionality in forest restoration planting in the tropics. Moreover, those that have compared aboveground carbon offset potential ...
