The interactive effects of rainfall, temperature and water level on fish yield in Lake Bangweulu fishery, Zambia

Research Priorities for Achieving Healthy Marine Ecosystems and Human Communities in a Changing Climate

“…"Equity" is a multidimensional issue, and multiple frameworks exist that describe differences in types of equity and how they may interface with conservation initiatives (Klein et al, 2015;Montambault et al, 2018). Critical knowledge gaps include: (1) how equity dynamics (types of equity issues, e.g., access equity, gender equity, generational equity; Klein et al, 2015) vary across different social and ecological contexts; (2) how different types of equity and conservation interventions affect the well-being of individuals and coastal ecosystems (e.g., Cinner et al, 2012a;Gurney et al, 2014); 3what kinds of interventions are both appropriate and provide the greatest benefit to people and nature in diverse contexts (e.g., Castilla et al, 1998;Gelcich et al, 2008Gelcich et al, , 2012Gelcich et al, , 2015Lubchenco et al, 2016); and (4) how issues such as access or distributional equity are affected by shifts in climate (Badjeck et al, 2010;Cinner et al, 2012b). Additional research in this area may evaluate the effectiveness of increased collaboration between conservation groups and organizations concerned with toxins, maritime-based human trafficking, food sovereignty movements, waste management, climate justice, and faith-based organizations (e.g., McLeod and Palmer, 2015).…”

Population dynamics of parameters and the size of the first gonade maturity on Java Barb (Barbonymus gonionotus) in Pondok Reservoir, East Java

“…The growth pattern during the dry season is allometric negative, while during the rainy season it is allometric positive, this is because during the rainy season the water quality is better and the temperature during the dry season is hotter (Aida et al, 2016;Kolding and Zwieten, 2012;Hoggarth and Utomo, 1994;Ng'onga et al, 2019) (Figure 6). Slow growth can be caused by high fishing pressure, poor water quality, and lack of availability of natural food (Bagenal and Tesch, 1978;Huet, 1990;Dulc¡ic et al, 2003).…”

The influence of ecosystems services depletion to climate change adaptation efforts in Africa

“…In freshwater ecosystems such as Lake Bangweulu, there is depletion of fish for fisheriesbased economy which may be attributed to the increase pressure of humans and increasing temperatures (Ng'onga et al, 2019). Increased vulnerability of the rural people to climate change further weakens their already low adaptive capacity.…”
