The Seasonal Dynamics of Equatorial Spread-F Over Puerto Maldonado - South America
(Maseno University, 2015)Equatorial spread-F (ESF) phenomenon refers to intense post-sunset ionospheric irregularity that occurs around the geomagnetic equator due to perturbations in the ambient plasma. It has remained a very active area of ... -
Sensitivity of thermally deposited titanium Dioxide thin film for Liquefied petroleum gas sensing application
(Maseno university, 2010)Titanium dioxide thin films have a wide scope of application including gas sensing. Other studies have been carried on the sensing ability ofTi02 to natural gases (02, CO2 and H2) and hydrocarbons (ethanol and butane). ... -

Survey of greenhouse gas fluxes from different vegetation, seasons and landscape units in small scale farming systems in lower Nyando-Kenya
(Maseno University, 2018)Greenhouse gases (GHGs) emissions data from large-scale agricultural activities are available. In developing countries, e.g. Kenya, agriculture is dominated by smallholder farming, data on the assessment of possible ... -
Susceptibility patterns and tolerance mechanisms of Staphylococcus Epidermidis biofilms to Physico-chemical stress exposure
(Maseno University, 2018)Bacterial biofilms remain a major public health burden. Staphylococcus epidermidis biofilm is the predominant cause of biofilm-associated infections. Kisumu county has a high circulation of antibiotic resistance genes, ... -
Synthesis and characterization of municipal waste incinerator fly ash based Geopolymers for the removal of Endosulfan from water: kinetics, isotherms, and thermodynamics
(Maseno University, 2023)Endosulfan is a broad spectrum organochlorine insecticide which acts as a contact poison for controlling a wide variety of insects. However, extensive and uncontrolled use of insecticides leads to water pollution. ...
