Download or read book A Contemporary Geography of Uganda written by Bakama B. BakamaNume and published by African Books Collective. This book was released on 2010 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The last text on the geography of Uganda was written in 1975 by Professor Brian Langlands. Since the last publication, Uganda has undergone numerous changes. The population has more than tripled from less than 10 million to almost 30 million. The district boundaries have changed and the number of districts increases every year. New districts are created every year. Economic productivity has also shifted over the years. Furthermore, new and emerging diseases have surfaced in Uganda. This book addresses the need for an updated document on the geography of Uganda. This book was written by a joint group of Ugandan geographers. The contributors authored chapters in their areas of specialization. There are a total of twelve chapters in the book. These chapters are based on the most current data available.
Download or read book Geology and Geodynamic Development of Uganda with Explanation of the 1 1 000 000 Scale Geological Map written by Aenaeus Bernardus Westerhof and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 387 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Special Paper describes an update of the geology and geodynamic development of Uganda. It is based on extensive work that a Consortium, headed by the Geological Survey of Finland (GTK), has executed in close cooperation with the Department of Geological Survey and Mines (DGSM) in Uganda during 2008-2012. The publication is compiled by a team of experts, based on a uniform database, and gives a coherent geological and geodynamic model for the whole country and, at the same time, it is an explanation to the new 1:1 million scale geological map of Uganda. Geologically Uganda is divided into a number of tectono-thermal domains, often closely related to continental scale "building blocks", each characterised by a specific geodynamic evolution. The lithostratigraphic units of the building blocks are described focusing on the hierarchy of the constituting units and field relationships, which jointly make up the local geology. A large number of outcrop photographs and chemical whole rock analyses are presented with GPS coordinates to give a more detailed description of the lithologies. Apart from GTK, the joint venture was composed of Council for Geoscience (CGS) from South Africa, GAF AG from Germany, Faculty of Geo-information and Earth Observation of the University of Twente (ITC) from the Netherlands and Fels Consultants Ltd (FCL) from Uganda as partners. The project "Geological mapping, geochemical surveys and mineral resources assessment in selected areas of Uganda" was a component in the "Sustainable Management of Mineral Resources Project" (SMMRP) funded by the World Bank Group.

Download or read book The Geology of Uganda written by Robert MacDonald and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-02-07 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book covers all geological and geoscience data produced to date in Uganda. In a regional and historical approach to the Geology of Uganda it includes references to the work of early geologists. Applied geoscience topics such as mineral deposits, environmental and engineering geology are included generally within the regional framework and are internally referenced. Of particular interest are the new data on the Western (Albertine) Rift generated by the recent oil discoveries and the large number of papers produced on the nature of the crust and kinematics leading to the evolution of the unique Ruwenzori horst block. The book will also tap into the completed mapping coverage available from the inter-bank multinational geological programme operating in Uganda since 2005 and due for final reporting by mid-2012. A new 1:1 million scale digital geological map of Uganda specifically matches terminology used in the book, and sets, together with the text, a standard for geological research.
Download or read book Statistics and Data Analysis in Geochemical Prospecting written by R.J. Howarth and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 441 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Handbook of Exploration Geochemistry, Volume 2: Statistics and Data Analysis in Geochemical Prospecting aims to survey the techniques available for the quality control of laboratory data, storage and retrieval of field and laboratory information, statistical analysis of single- and multi-element data, and presentation of geochemical data as maps. The selection first elaborates on data storage and retrieval, control procedures in geochemical analysis, and univariate analysis. Discussions focus on analysis of variance, density distribution, probability graphs, statistical basis of analytical quality control, laboratory control procedures, data storage media, data organization, programming considerations, and generalized data systems. The book then takes a look at sampling methodology, mapping, and multivariate analysis. Concerns cover correlation, cluster analysis, regression, partial correlation, class selection techniques, map filtering techniques, cross-correlation maps, strategies for optimum sampling design, and search techniques. The manuscript elaborates on examples of geochemical data processing in Africa, mathematical and statistical activity in North America, statistical models for geochemical anomalies, geochemical characterization of tin granites in northern Thailand, and use of pattern classification methods in till geochemistry. The selection is highly recommended for researchers interested in statistics and data analysis in geochemical prospecting.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Medical Geology of Africa explores the connection between geological materials, processes and the health of humans and animals. The book fosters an improved understanding of the ways in which the geological environment impacts the geographical distribution of health problems and how they contribute to better diagnoses and therapy. Africa’s unique geoenvironmental condition gives added relevance to such studies, underlining the need for geoscience and public health students and practitioners to understand new principles and applications. Chapters in the book provide extended enquiry-based investigations and examples that employ real geochemical datasets, epidemiological records, public health statistics and visualizations. Provides a summary of current research on Medical Geology of Africa Identifies gaps in knowledge of the role of the geo-environment in deciphering unknown aetiologies Assembles the most recent literature on current thematic issues, and prescribes directions of future research
