Stochastic drought forecasting exploration for water resources management in the upper Tana river basin, Kenya
(IGI Global, 2016)
This chapter presents the trend of drought as a stochastic natural disaster influenced by the climate variability for the upper Tana River basin in Kenya. Drought frequency, duration and intensity in the upper
Tana River ...
Evidence of hydrological extremes primarily driven by human land use changes in tropical African basins
(2018-04)
The sensitivity of basins to human alterations on land and their associated hydrological impacts is a subject of on-going research and is particularly poorly understood especially in tropical African basins. Oftentimes ...
Using intermittent sand filters of various depths to remove NH3-N, NO3N and NO2N from the wastewater of sugar milling factory.
(International Institute for Science, Technology and Education (IISTE), 2014)
Intermittent sand filter systems have been used in wastewater treatment according to Selecky (2012) especially
their application for on-site wastewater management. Intermittent sand filters have not been used to treat ...
Power degradation and its climatic correlation in field-aged photovoltaic modules operating in Kenya
(GlobeEdu Group, 2015-01-01)
Photovoltaic (PV) modules deployed outdoors usually degrade physically due to exposure to the various elements such as UV light, a range of fluctuating temperatures and humidity and variations in operating currents and ...
Access to water in Kenya’s coast region
(2018)
Water is considered a basic commodity and essential for life - living on planet earth is dependent on it. However, access to water has been and will continue
to be a dilemma for a majority of the residents at the coast ...
The effect of climate change on loss of lake volume: case of sedimentation in central rift valley basin, Ethiopia
(MDPI, 2018-12-11)
Evaluating the impact of climate change on sediment yield has become one of the major
topics in climate research. The purpose of this study was to investigate sediment yield contribution to
lake volume change under ...
Simulation of constructed wetland treatment in wastewater polishing using PREWet model Publ
(Routledge, 2012-03-01)
To minimize the negative impact of wastewater when disposed into water bodies, proper treatment before its disposal is vital. Different wastewater treatment scenarios can be tested using predictive and analytical models. ...
