Spot observation: advantages and disadvantages for household time use research
(Journal of Family and Economic Issues, 1998)
The spot observation method of estimating time use is described in this article. Procedures for using this method in developing countries, where household activities are relatively easily observed, are contrasted with ...
Comparative study of aminosidine, etophamide and nimorazole, alone or in combination, in the treatment of intestinal amoebiasis in Kenya
(SpringerLink, 1990-05-26)
417 patients suffering from intestinal amoebiasis were randomly allocated to 6 different treatment groups in a controlled study in 3 District Hospitals in Kenya. The patients received either aminosidine (A), etophamide ...
Competition in Kenyan soils between Rhizobium leguminosarum biovar phaseoli strain Kim5 and R. tropici strain CIAT899 using the gusA marker gene
(Kluwer Academic Publishers, 1998-07)
The contribution of appropriate inoculum strains to more efficient nitrogen fixation by legumes has been difficult to assess due to the laborious nature of the assays involved in assessing establishment of inoculum strains ...
Generalized characteristics of intense rainfall and peak discharges in Athi basin, Kenya
(JSHWR Committee on Editorial and Publication Affairs, 1995)
Presented in this paper is a study clarifying any distinctions or similarities in trends of extreme value statistics of rainfall and discharges recorded at stations sampled all over a basin traversing three distinct climatic ...
Diversity of Rhizobia Nodulating Phaseolus vulgaris L. in two Kenyan soils with contrasting pHs.
(American Society for Microbiology, 1995)
Rhizobia were isolated from two Kenyan soils with pHs of 4.5 and 6.8 and characterized on the basis of their host ranges for nodulation and nitrogen fixation, colony morphologies, restriction fragment fingerprints, and ...
Simulation of Daily streamflows for hydrologically large catchments in drainage area 3, Kenya
(Journal of Japan hydrology and water resources, 1995)
Tank Model found to be suitable for predicting daily discharges of tropical subbasins identified as having pronounced sluggish runoff response due to basin storage effect is presented in this paper. Runoff response in the ...
A modified tank model and applications in some river basins in Kenya
(Journal of japan hydrology and water resources, 1996)
Modified Tank Model which explicitly simulates surface runoff is proposed in this paper. The surface flow as applied here refers to the flow which travels through surface layer. The surface layer is considered as very ...
