Effect of physicochemical factors and dyke on conservation of Oreochromis esculentus and Oreochromis variabilis in lake Kanyaboli, Kenya
(Maseno University, 2017)Lake Victoria witnessed mass extinction of native fish species that coincided with introductions of Lates niloticus and Oreochromis niloticus about five decades ago. Small populations of O. esculentus and O. variabilis ... -
Correlation Between Geomagnetic Field Variations and the Dynamics of the Equatorial Ionosphere Over East Africa
(Maseno University, 2017)The geomagnetic field shows regular variation during geomagnetic quiet conditions. However, during geomagnetic storms, it exhibits irregular fluctuations that can induce hazardous electric currents in ground based conductor ... -
Relationship between Physicochemical Factors and Occurrence of Vibrio Strains in the Environment of the Lake Victoria Basin
(Maseno, 2017)Aflatoxins, naturally occurring carcinogenic toxins produced by species of fungi, Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus parasiticus, are associated with poor growth outcomes, especially stunting and underweight as well as ... -
