DIET AND SOME BIOLOGICAL ASPECTS OF SILVER CYPRINID, Rastrineobola argentea (Pellegrin, 1904) IN LAKE VICTORIA, KENYA.
(University of Eldoret, 2016)
Studies on the diet and some biological aspects of Rastrineobola argentea were conducted between August 2014 and March 2015 in the Kenyan waters of Lake Victoria. Stomach contents of 1154 specimens collected from commercial ...
TROPHIC ECOLOGY AND EXPLOITATION STATUS OF SHARK SPECIES (PISCES: ELASMOBRANCHII) IN THE NORTH COAST OF KENYA
(University of Eldoret, 2017)
Sharks are apex predators in marine ecosystems whose trophic ecology is likely to influence community structure and function in their distribution range. Despite this role, data on the trophic ecology and exploitation ...
SPATIO-TEMPORAL DYNAMICS OF THE MARINE AQUARIUM FISHERY AND RECRUITMENT OF REEF FISHES IN COASTAL KENYA
(University of Eldoret, 2017)
Sustainable management of the marine aquarium fisheries in Kenya is challenged by limited information on the fishery and recruitment dynamics of target species at sufficient spatial, temporal and taxonomic scales. In order ...
ECOSYSTEM-BASED ASSESSMENT OF THE MALINDI-UNGWANA BAY PRAWN FISHERY USING ECOLOGICAL INDICATORS
(University of Eldoret, 2014)
The study aimed to generate information that will contribute to development of an Ecosystem based approach to fisheries management (EAFM) of prawn resources in the Malindi-Ungwana
Bay, Kenya. A comprehensive ecosystem-based ...
GENETIC STRUCTURE OF CRIMSON JOBFISH, Pristipomoides filamentosus (VALENCIENNES, 1830) POPULATION OF THE SOUTHWEST INDIAN OCEAN
(University of Eldoret, 2013)
Crimson jobfish, Pristipomoides filamentosus is a commercially important tropical
snapper. Their aggressive nature and relatively large size makes them more vulnerable to
fishing gears. In addition it is vulnerable to ...
LEVELS AND DISTRIBUTION OF POLYCHLORINATED BIPHENYLS (PCBS) IN WATER, SEDIMENT, FISH AND THEIR ASSOCIATED PARASITES IN LAKE VICTORIA - KENYA
(University of Eldoret, 2015)
To fulfill regulatory requirements on flame retardancy, flame retardants like Polychlorinated Biphenyl (PCBs) are incorporated into a number of polymers. These chemicals are toxic, persistent, and bioaccumulate in biota. ...
INTEGRATED ASSESSMENT OF THE HEALTH OF RIVER SOSIANI; KENYA
(University of Eldoret, 2013)
This study set out to evaluate the effect of anthropogenic activities by analyzing the physical
habitat characteristics, physico-chemical water quality parameters, macrophytes and
macroinvertebrates as indicators of ...
THE EFFECT OF AMINO ACID SUPPLEMENTED DIETS ON GROWTH PERFOMANCE OF NILE TILAPIA (Oreochromis niloticus Linnaeus, 1758) FINGERLINGS REARED IN HAPAS SUSPENDED IN EARTHEN POND
(University of Eldoret, 2018)
Commercial diets are produced in bulk with significant anti-nutritional factors
increasing aquaculture production cost. The proximate composition of local feed
ingredient is limited by unbalanced dietary amino acid ...
A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF GROWTH RATES AND YIELD OF THE SEAWEED, Kappaphycus alvarezii (Doty), USING VARIABLE SEEDLING DENSITIES AND CULTURE METHODS IN COASTAL KENYA.
(University of Eldoret, 2019)
Seaweed farming has been demonstrated to have significant socio-economic benefits to coastal communities and has the potential to reduce pressure on wild fishery stocks. This work was aimed at testing sustainable farming ...
NON-CLASSICAL APPROACHES TO THE STUDY OF THE ECOLOGY AND FISHERY OF Rastrineobola argentea (PELLEGRIN 1904) IN THE WINAM GULF OF LAKE VICTORIA, KENYA
(University of Eldoret, 2013)
Many schools of thought tend to suggest that the central assumption in classical fisheries
models may not necessarily hold and thus there is need to explore new approaches such as
Bayesian Belief Networks (BBN), Artificial ...
