The terrain of urbanisation process and policy frameworks: A critical analysis of the Kampala experience
(Cogent OA, 2017)Kampala is urbanising in an unplanned manner, but without a clear picture of the underlying dynamics. The city is characterised by lack of proper zoning of economic activities and construction of physical infrastructure ... -

Testing for the occurrence of pilchard herpesvirus (PHV) in South African sardine Sardinops sagax
(National Inquiry Services Centre (NISC), 2016)Catches of South African sardine Sardinops sagax have declined in recent years from about 200 000 t harvested annually during the period 2002–2006 to less than 100 000 t. Consequently, some companies are now importing ... -
Testing foundations of modern cosmology with SKA all-sky surveys
(Proceedings of Science, 2014)Continuum and HI surveys with the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) will allow us to probe some of the most fundamental assumptions of modern cosmology, including the Cosmological Principle. SKA all-sky surveys will map an ... -
Testing galaxy formation simulations with damped Lyman-α abundance and metallicity evolution

Testing of eight medicinal plant extracts in combination with kresoxim-methyl for integrated control of botrytis cinerea in apples
(MDPI, 2015)Botrytis cinerea is a fungus that causes gray mold on many fruit crops. Despite the availability of a large number of botryticides, the chemical control of gray mold has been hindered by the emergence of resistant strains. ... -
Testing the equivalence principle on cosmological scales using the odd multipoles of galaxy cross-power spectrum and bispectrum
(IOP, 2021)One of the cornerstones of general relativity is the equivalence principle. However, the validity of the equivalence principle has only been established on solar system scales for standard matter fields; this result ... -
