Fencing Lands to Enhanced Climate Change Resilience, promoting Biodiversity Regeneration and Improved Livelihoods of Climate Change in Makueni County
Frank Wesonga*, Francis Keya
Kenya is a food insecure country, weather patterns are drastically changing and people are losing livelihoods and earnings when their lands dry, water for domestic supply lacks and livestock die further frustrating livelihoods of the poor. This paper briefly discusses Fencing of lands as prerequisite to biodiversity protection and faster water retention mechanism, through tree planting, enhancing
Improved Organically Treated Nanoclay-Polyurethane Nanocomposite
Mona A. Ahmed*, Ashraf M. El-Saeed, Hamdy M. Naguib
Recently, nanocomposites are used in a wide range of applications; however the incompatibility between all components causes some drawbacks. Treatment of filler can solve this problem through formation of improved filler-matrix interface. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of filling polyurethane matrix with (0.5, 1 and 1.5) wt.% layered double hydroxide nanoclay, as coating. Magne
Urban Flood Vulnerability and Risk Mapping using Multi-Criteria Analysis in Mzuzu City, Malawi
Donnex Chilonga*, Mabvuto Tembo
This paper presents the results of the assessment of flood vulnerability of Mzuzu City using Multi-criteria analysis and GIS. Using a Weighted Overlay approach, physiogeographic variables that influence floods such as drainage density, elevation, slope, landuse/landcover and soil type, were integrated and ranked based on their importance. From this assessment, urban flood risk map for the City was
Cybersecurity Resilience Maturity Assessment Tool for Critical National Information Infrastructure
Victor Emmanuel Kulugh*, Uche M. Mbanaso and Gloria Chukwudebe
Cybersecurity resilience maturity assessment of critical national information infrastructure (CNII) is an important process in ensuring that organisations’ capability for resilience are measured and gaps determined vis-à-vis targeted resilience for the purpose of improvements. However, existing solutions do not provide an automated quantitative tool to enable organisation conduct the assessment o
Policy Framework for Managing Decommissioned Solar Power Systems in the Niger Delta: A Scientometric Report
Okorhi Ojiyovwi Johnson*, Richard John Azubuike, Uhunmwangho Roland
The Niger Delta region has experienced substantial growth in the deployment of solar power systems (SPSs) to meet the energy requirements of its populace. As these systems reach their end-of-life, appropriate management strategies are crucial to minimize environmental footprints and maximize resource recovery. This scientometrics paper was aimed at assessing government regulations for managing dec
