Evaluation and Prediction of the Impacts of Land Cover Changes on Hydrological Processes in Data Constrained Southern Slopes of Kilimanjaro, Tanzania
(MDPI, 2021-05-30)
This study provides a detailed assessment of land cover (LC) changes on the water balance components on data constrained Kikafu-Weruweru-Karanga (KWK) watershed, using the integrated approaches of hydrologic modeling and ...
Modelling habitat conversion in miombo woodlands: insights from Tanzania
(Taylor & Francis Group, 2017-05-29)
Understanding the drivers of natural habitat conversion is a major challenge,
yet predicting where future losses may occur is crucial to preventing
them. Here, we used Bayesian analysis to model spatio-temporal
patterns ...
Population size estimates and distribution of the African elephant using the dung surveys method in Rubondo Island National Park, Tanzania
(International Journal of Biodiversity and Conservation, 2016-06)
A study to estimate population size and distribution of elephants in the Rubondo Island National Park
(RINP) was conducted between March and July 2014. It involved elephant dung survey methods. In
estimating elephant ...
Climate change and decline in water resources in Kikuletwa Catchment, Pangani, Northern Tanzania
(African Journal of Environmental Science and Technology, 2014-01)
The sensitivity of hydrology and water resources to climate variation in Kikuletwa Catchment, Pangani
Basin, northern Tanzania was assessed using 30 years of river level and climate data as well as
questionnaire, focused ...
Integrating UAV Technology in an Ecological Monitoring System for Community Wildlife Management Areas in Tanzania
(MDPI, 2019-11-03)
Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) have recently emerged as a new remote sensing
aerial platform, and they are seemingly advancing real-time data generation. Nonetheless,
considerable uncertainties remain in the extent to ...
How dynamics and drivers of land use/land cover change impact elephant conservation and agricultural livelihood development in Rombo, Tanzania.
(Taylor & Francis Group, 2017)
Land use/ land cover (LULC) change affects the provision of ecosystem services for humans and habitat for wildlife. Hence, it is crucial to monitor LULC particularly adjacent to protected areas. In this study, we measured ...
Effect of Rhizobium and Intercropping Systems on Soil Nutrients and Biological Nitrogen Fixation as Influenced by Legumes (Phaseolus vulgaris and Dolichos lablab)
(International Journal of Current Microbiology and Applied Sciences, 2016-10-10)
The study was conducted to assess the effect of Rhizobium inoculation and
intercropping systems on soil nutrients improvement and biological nitrogen
fixation as influenced by two legumes (Phaseolus vulgaris and Dolichos ...
Effects of intercropping systems and Rhizobium inoculation on yields of maize (Zea mays) and two legumes (Phaseolus vulgaris and Dolichos lablab)
(International Journal of Biosciences, 2017-02-28)
This study aimed to assess the effect of intercropping systems, Rhizobium inoculation and legumes on yield
components and grain yields of maize and two legumes. To achieve this objective, field experiments were
executed ...
Determining tributary sources of increased sedimentation in East-African Rift Lakes.
(Elsevier B.V., 2020-05-15)
Temporal and spatial sediment dynamics in an East-African Rift Lake (Lake Manyara, Tanzania), and its river inputs, have been evaluated via a combination of sediment tracing and radioactive dating. Changes in sedimentation ...
Improving Soil Fertility and Crops Yield through Maize-Legumes (Common bean and Dolichos lablab) Intercropping Systems
(Canadian Center of Science and Education, 2016-11-15)
Declining crops yield in the smallholder farmers cropping systems of sub-Saharan African (SSA) present the
need to develop more sustainable production systems. Depletion of essential plant nutrients from the soils have
been ...
