Fluctuating Fisheries in Africa's Inland Waters: Well

This paper evaluates evidence that fish stocks in Africa's inland waters are climate-driven and cannot be stabilized by conventional fisheries management measures. We draw on published material and our own recent and on-going research in Lake Chad and the East African Great Lakes area to propose that fisherfolk's livelihood strategies are well adapted to both seasonal and inter-annual climate-i...

Recovery from acidification in European surface waters

Water quality data for 56 long-term monitoring sites in eight European countries are used to assess freshwater responses to reductions in acid deposition at a large spatial scale. In a consistent analysis of trends from 1980 onwards, the majority of surface waters (38 of 56) showed significant (p ≤ 0.05) decreasing trends in pollution-derived sulphate. Only two sites showed a significant increa...

Inland Waters of Samothraki Island (Greece): Exploratory Ecological Assessment

Samothraki is a northern Aegean island with poorly studied inland waters. River features show a high degree of naturalness; lotic, lentic and riparian conditions exhibit significant perennial flows with waterfalls, pools and ancient riparian woodlands. In this study, we document surface and ground water quality status based on recent field observations, data collection and analyses. The island ...
