A 13-year climatological study on the variations of aerosol and cloud properties over Kazakhstan from remotely sensed satellite observations
(Pergamon, 2018-11)
The Republic of Kazakhstan, by geographical and climatological conditions, is a key location for the characterization of atmospheric aerosols due to an unprecedented increase of aerosol's concentrations in the recent years. ...
Optical, microphysical and radiative properties of aerosols over a tropical rural site in Kenya, East Africa: Source identification, modification and aerosol type discrimination
(Pergamon, 2018)
A better understanding of aerosol optical, microphysical and radiative properties is a crucial challenge for climate change studies. In the present study, column-integrated aerosol optical and radiative properties observed ...
Spatiotemporal characteristics of aerosols and their trends over mainland China with the recent Collection 6 MODIS and OMI satellite datasets
(Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2018-03)
With the rapid development of China’s economy and high rate of industrialization, environmental pollution has become a major challenge for the country. The present study is aimed at analyzing spatiotemporal heterogeneities ...
Prevalence and genotyping of Echinococcus granulosus in sheep in Narok County, Kenya
(Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2018-07)
Cystic echinococcosis (CE) is a zoonotic disease caused by the larval stage of Echinococcus granulosus species (sensu lato, s.l.). In East Africa, several species/strains occur in livestock, wildlife, and humans, but there ...

Molecular characterization of Echinococcus species in dogs from four regions of Kenya
(Elsevier, 2018-05-15)
Cystic echinococcosis is endemic both in livestock and humans in many parts of Kenya. However, very little data exists on Echinococcus infections in dogs, and therefore their role in maintaining the transmission cycles and ...
Expression profiling of Trypanosoma congolense genes during development in the tsetse fly vector Glossina morsitans morsitans
(BioMed Central, 2018-12)
The tsetse transmitted parasitic flagellate Trypanosoma congolense causes animal African trypanosomosis (AAT) across sub-Saharan Africa. AAT negatively impacts agricultural, economic, nutritional and subsequently, health ...
