    Abstract : This study explores shallow lake numerical hydrodynamic processes that support model development and validation, extreme events and effects of water circulation in Lake Victoria. Lake Victoria is the second largest freshwater lake in the world, and the largest in East Africa. READ MORE

  5. 5. Production Technology and the Role of Skipper Skills in Lake Victoria Fisheries

    Author : Razack B. Lokina; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; incentives; Lake Victoria; productivity; remuneration; skipper skills; technical efficiency;

    Abstract : In this study we seek to explain the role of skipper skills in the productivity of fishing boats. The data is from the Lake Victoria fisheries for three fishing seasons (normal, peak and off-season) and two major species (Nile perch and Dagaa). READ MORE
