line-height:107%;font-family:" tahoma",sans-serif"="">Seismic survey has long become a trusted tool for hydrocarbon exploration. This is because of the outstanding ability of seismic reflections and their over lapping relationships to image deep and shallow subsurface structures and delineate promising structural and stratigraphic traps. These subsurface features become good prospecting targets, maybe because of their depositional history or post depositional events. With this in mind, it is...
line-height:115%">Forensic geophysics can be seen as that involving the use of geophysical methods in the search, locating and mapping of hidden or buried features underground or underwater. Geophysical methods have the potential to aid the search and recovery of a target because they can nondestructively and rapidly investigate large areas where a suspect, illegal burial or, in general, a forensic target or object is hidden in the subsurface.
Geophysical field school is an annual academic camping exercise that is aimed at exposing students to the practical aspects of geophysics. It is a three (3) credit hour course for third year students of applied geophysics aimed at educating students on the handling of geophysical equipment and the rudiments of data acquisition, processing and interpretation. line-height:107%;font-family:" tahoma",sans-serif"="">This year’s field school was held at Ikot Nakanda and i...
1.0 Background to the StudyThe internet is an integral part of our daily lives, and the proportion of the people who are expected to be able to manage their bank account anywhere, anytime is constantly growing. As such, internet mobile banking has come of age as a crucial component of any financial institution’s multichannel strategy. Internet mobile banking uses mobile phone with internet facility as the delivery channel to conduct banking activities like transferring funds, paying bills, ...

ABSTRACTThis study reviews earthquake monitoring and sensing in Nigeria. The techniques used to monitor earthquakes include seismic, Global position system (GPS) and remote sensingmethods. For now there is no scientific method of predicting earthquakes, butseismologists depend on the anomalous animal behaviour, radon emissions,trends, creep fault, drop/rise in the water level and anomalous plant behaviourfor earthquake prediction. The study also revealed that Nigeria is not seismicallyfree fr...
ABSTRACTThis research assesses the various factors responsible for road failures in thesouthwestern and south-southern parts of Nigeria with the aim of reportingfindings to the public domain. The research further stressed the importance andrelevance of geophysics in evaluating civil engineering structures such asroads. The above goals were met by studying the results of surveys carried outby researchers in southern Nigeria. Electrical Resistivity and Electromagneticmethods have been used to e...
ABSTRACTIn the up to date electronic planet, authentication of an individual is a vital assignment in numerous territories of everyday existence. Smart Cards are secure compact space gadgets utilized for a few requisitions specifically security identified ones including access to framework's database either connected or disconnected from the net. Smartcard are regularly “secure” movable units. It is an elevated amount outline system for installed informative data frameworks. Normally a sm...

ABSTRACTThis project was out of the necessity to address the inherent problems encountered by members of staff of Air Nigeria and their customers. The manual processes involved in the management of airline were critical examined and the flows noted. The software so designed offers to a great extent, the solutions to these problems. The project went further to ret the different techniques used in implementing the newly design software in order to facilitate a broader understanding of the desig...
ABSTRACT Tinea pedis, a fungal infection of the feet, especially within the toe webs and soles was studied using 40 soldiers (20men and 20women) as a case study. This infection is related to footwear having been considered to be a new dermatophytoses. The soldiers have the toe webs and soles cleaned with alcohol or sterile water and the lesions scrapped with sterile scalpel and placed between two glass slides with a drop of 10-20% kOH and then viewed under ...
ABSTRACTThis project is aimed at improving along lasting processing and administration system on National Identity card. It is also aimed at keeping records of all processing and administration system for national Identity card with view of modifying it into a full computerized system. The study covers the areas of application entry, record verification, list generation, code numbering and maintenance of the managed information. The new system developed is very easy to use and gives answers t...
ABSTRACTThis project work is aimed at studying the procedure for NYSC posting system for the purpose of automating the system for effectiveness and efficiency. Nigerian University students are sent on a one year National youth service corps after their graduation from the university. The list forwarded by universities to NYSC Headquarter is registered for the purpose of sending call-up letter to the students and for posting of qualified students. So, this research is to design and implement a...
ENVIRONMENTAL DEGRADATION, CLIMATE CHANGE, MIGRATION AND YOUTH Within the debates on the consequences of climatic and ecological change, international attention has become increasingly focussed on the links between environmental change and human migration. Several international organisations such as UNHCR, UNFCCC, IOM and UNICEF are addressing this issue. Furthermore, a series of research initiatives focusing on the link between environmental change and migration has been s...
