Purpose: This study aims to examine the quality of healthcare in Uganda in terms of effectiveness, safety, patient-centred and timeliness of District Healthcare Facilities. Research methodology: This study took a case ...

Africa is endowed with the second largest block of nature-engineered machinery to sequester carbon: forests. Sadly, the functional traits and responses of this machinery are poorly understood, under non-drought, current ...

1. Anthropogenic global change compromises forest resilience, with profound impacts to ecosystem functions and services. This synthesis paper reflects on the current understanding of forest resilience and potential tipping ...

Maesopsis eminii is referred to as one of the most widely distributed African tree species. However, its occurrence in Africa has never been mapped and little is known as to how this species can sustain in different ...

Photoassimilate distribution inside leaves is less studied than photosynthesis, and yet the topic is important as it gives insights into the vital roles played by leaves in plant survival. We combined greenhouse measurements ...

The impact of drought on the hydraulic functioning of important African tree species, like Maesopsis eminii Engl., is poorly understood. To map the hydraulic response to drought-induced cavitation, sole reliance on the ...

With increased drought events affecting forests globally, little is known about their future impact on Africa’s forests. In particular, we need to gain a better understanding of how key African forest species will respond ...

The study sought to analyse the monitoring and provision of support supervision on the learners’ level of attainment of numeracy skills in Acholi Sub-region Uganda. The study adopted the casual comparative research design ...

Generally, tree species load photoassimilates passively into the phloem, while herbaceous species load actively. These phloem loading strategies have implications for phloem sugar concentration and growth potential. Whereas, ...
