Factors influencing the spatio-temporal dynamics of plankton communities in small tropical lakes are not well-understood. This study assessed plankton communities in response to spatial (six sampling sites) and seasonal ...

Although several studies have investigated the relationships between water quality in rivers and the types of land use within their catchments, many aspects of these relationships remain unclear in Afromontane-savanna ...

Enteromius is currently represented by350 valid species, making it the most speciose and widely distributedcyprinidgenuson the African continent.TheEnteromiusrepresents one of the most common genera occurring in almost all ...

In Afromontane-savanna rivers, data on the role of land use, stream size and large mammalian herbivores (LMH, both wildlife and livestock) and their interactions on nutrient cycling, dissolved organic matter (DOM) composition, ...

The Enteromius species are a widely distributed group of freshwater fishes in Africa. However, their abundance and diversity are affected by environmental quality. This study therefore investigated the relationship between ...

Aquaculture productivity in Kenya is lower than the level required to support major section development despite an escalated need for fish. Low fish productivity is due to the location of fish ponds without considering ...

In recent years, aquaculture has accounted for roughly half of all fish consumed globally. Scholar’s view aquaculture to have the potential to expand sustainably if suitable fish pond sites are located guided by ...

Functional feeding groups in tropical rivers helps in understanding organic matter processing, energy flow, trophic relationship and management activities. This study aimed to describe the general distribution and ...

Fish require high quality protein in their rations which is sourced from fish meal. However, its scarcity and competition for use in livestock feeds has caused escalation of prices thus limiting its use. A study was carried ...

Bagrus docmak is indigenous to Lake Victoria, being an important source of economic livelihoods to communities around the lake. Although its stocks in the lake are facing intense fishing, predation and ecological changes, ...
