Influence of catchment land use and seasonality on dissolved organic matter composition and ecosystem metabolism in headwater streams of a Kenyan river
(Biogeochemistry An International Journal, 2017-01)
Headwater streams influence the biogeochemical characteristics of large rivers and play
important roles in regional and global carbon budgets.
The combined effects of seasonality and land use
change on the biogeochemistry ...
Use of macroinvertebrate assemblages for assessing performance of stabilization ponds treating effluents from sugarcane and molasses processing
(Springer, 2017)
Wastewater discharge from sugarcane processing is a significant pollutant of tropical aquatic ecosystems. For most developing countries, monitoring of the level of pollutants is done mostly through chemical analysis, but ...
Genetic diversity and population structure of the African catfish, Clarias gariepinus (Burchell, 1822) in Kenya: implication for conservation and aquaculture
(Belgian Journal of Zoology, 2017)
African catfish, Clarias gariepinus, is an important species in aquaculture and fisheries
in Kenya. Mitochondrial D-loop control region was used to determine genetic variation and population
structure in samples of C. ...
THE INFLUENCE OF SALTWORKS’ WASTE-BRINE ON DISTRIBUTION OF MANGROVE CRABS (DECAPODA, PORTUNIDAE) WITHIN THE GONGONI-KURAWA INTERTIDAL AREA, KENYA
(University of Eldoret, 2017)
Evaporation is one of the oldest methods employed in sea salt production, a process that involves pumping seas water into a series of ponds where solar evaporation concentrates it into brine, and precipitates the salt; ...
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 ...
