Parasites of Commercially Important Fish from Lake Naivasha, Rift Valley, Kenya.
(springer, 2014-01)
In Lake Naivasha, the common carp Cyprinus carpio L. 1758 was accidentally introduced from fish farms adjacent to River Malewa in 1999 and now forms the bulk of the total fish caught. Since its introduction, no study has ...
. Application of banach space ideal properties in image transmission over wireless network
(2014-03)
The Banach space operator ideals and nuclear maps have a large class of morphisms which behave as if they were part of a compact closed category, that is, they allow one to transfer variables between the domain and the ...
Distribution of Spectrum in a Direct Sum Decomposition of Operators into Normal and Completely Non normal parts;
(Modern Scientific Press Company, Florida, USA, 2014-09-05)
We discuss the distribution of spectra of a direct sum decomposition of an arbitrary operator into normal and completely non normal parts. We utilize the fact that any given operator 𝑇∈𝐵(𝐻) can be ...

(Springer, 2014-07-16)
The Association for Strengthening Agricultural Research in Eastern and Central Africa (ASARECA) through its Agrobiodiversity and Biotechnology Programme is enhancing the utilization of biotechnology research and development ...
Reflectance, Transmittance and Absorptance of HDPE, LDPE, Glass and Sand Layer Used in a SAH
(2014)
The total Infra-red (IR) transmission of polymer films is a very important property in engineering, which determines their suitability for a specific application at a given temperature level. Aiming to investigate the ...
UV Absorption and dynamic mechanical analysis of polyethylene films
(2014-12)
Photooxidative processes that lead to chain scission and chain linking in polymers play an important role in polymer degradation. These processes are induced by both ultraviolet (UV) and visible light absorption. The ...
2D-Euler Deconvolution and Forward Modeling of Gravity Data of Homa-Hills Geothermal Prospect, Kenya
(2014)
In order to fully assess the potential of Homa Hills Geothermal prospect, the heat source which is one of the main features of a geothermal system had to be located based on its perturbation on the gravity field. Ground ...
