The role of technology in enhancing financial reporting (a case study of banks in embu county)
(UoEm, 2024-01-30)This research project aimed to examine the role of technology in enhancing financial reporting in banks in Embu County, Kenya. The increasing adoption of digital technologies in the financial industry has led to improvements ... -
The role of varietal attributes on adoption of improved seed varieties: the case of sorghum in Kenya
(BioMed Central, 2014)This paper examined the effect of variety attributes on adoption of improved sorghum varieties in Kenya. Using data from a random sample of 140 farmers, a multivariate probit was used to identify variety-specific drivers of ... -
Roles of doping ions in afterglow properties of blue CaAl2O4:Eu2+,Nd3+ phosphors
(2014-04)Eu2+ doped and Nd3+ co-doped calcium aluminate (CaAl2O4:Eu2+,Nd3+) phosphor was prepared by a urea-nitrate solution combustion method at furnace temperatures as low as 500 °C. The produced CaAl2O4:Eu2+,Nd3+ powder was ... -
Root and soil health management approaches for control of plant-parasitic nematodes in sub-Saharan Africa
(Elsevier, 2021-10)Smallholder farmers in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) face several challenges that include pests and diseases. Plant-parasitic nematodes (PPN) reduce crop yields and affect their quality. They are an emerging threat to smallholder ... -
Root Reconstruction with Total Replacement of Ascending Aorta Using Hypothermic Circulatory Arrest and Selective Cerebral Perfusion for Moderately Dilated Distal Ascending Aorta
(Scientific Research, 2013-07)Objective: We have occasionally encountered a moderately dilated distal ascending aorta while reconstructing an aortic root. We describe reconstruction of an extended root and ascending aorta using our current strategy. ... -
Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis L.) growth rate, oil yield and oil quality under differing soil amendments
(Heliyon, 2022)In this work, we examined the influence of different soil amendments namely cow manure alone (Cm), cow manure plus fertilizer (Cm þ F), fertilizer alone (F) and unamended check, control on rosemary growth rate, fat content, ... -

Rules-of-thumb to design a uniform spherical array for direction finding—Its Cramér– Rao bounds' nonlinear dependence on the number of sensors
(Acoustical Society of America, 2019-02)ABSTRACT This paper discovers rules-of-thumb on how the estimation precision for an incident source's azimuth-polar direction-of-arrival (ϕ,θ) depends on the number (L) of identical isotropic sensors spaced uniformly on ... -
Sahiwal cattle in semi-arid Kenya: genetic aspects of growth and survival traits and their relationship to milk production and fertility
(2011-12)The aim of this study was to estimate genetic and phenotypic parameters for growth and survival traits of Sahiwal cattle in Kenya and determine their relationship to milk production and fertility. Performance records of ... -
Salt stress induced effects on biochemical parameters in etiolated maize leaf segments during greening
(African Journal of Biological Sciences, 2019-07-08)Treatment of etiolated maize leaf segments with 0-300 mM NaCl during greening decreased the osmotic potential of leaf sap significantly. Na+ content of the leaf tissue increased significantly on supplying different ... -
Sampling and Reconstruction of Zero-Order Hold Signals by Parallel RC Filters
(Scientific Research Publishing, 2011)In this work we describe a reconstruction algorithm for zero-order hold (ZOH) waveforms measured by a parallel sam-pling scheme. In the method the ZOH signal is fed to a parallel network consisting of resistor-capacitor ... -
