Cherax quadricarinatus is an Alien Invasive Species (AIS) native to Australia and Papua New Guinea, which has been introduced into Lake Kariba and the Kafue Floodplain and has since established its populations. Continued population growth and spread of C. quadricarinatus threatens the integrity...

Population growth parameters and mortality rates of Lates stappersii were investigated for the southeast and southwest arms of Lake Tanganyika, Zambia from April, 2022 to August, 2022. Exploitation ratio was studied. Furthermore, water quality parameters were investigated. Fish samples were...

The objective of the study was to assess the regeneration of Miombo woodlands after shifting cultivation in Chibombo and Rufunsa districts in comparison to undisturbed woodland. The study analysed different descriptors that characterize the woodland including: species composition, diversity,...

This study investigates selected aspects of the population biology of Tylochromis bangwelensis that included: reproductive biology, growth and mortality in Bangweulu Lakes and Swamps Complex Fishery. The main objective was to determine if stocks of the species are under or over exploited in the...

This study investigates the effect of aquaculture on Phytoplankton diversity and abundance in Lake Kariba. Water parameters that were monitored included: phosphate, nitrate and silica concentrations. Water samples were analysed from an aquaculture station at Yalelo fish cages located at Kamimbi...

The introduction of Oreochromis niloticus on Lake Kariba has been widely associated with the decline in preponderance of indigenous Tilapiines, especially Oreochromis mortimeri. Comperative aspects of abundances, growth and reproductive biology for O. niloticus, and three known indigeous...

Growth and mortality of Oreochromis andersonii, Oreochromis macrochir and Oreochromis niloticus of the Kafue Floodplain fishery were investigated between September, 2015 and November, 2015. This study was aimed at investigating the growth and mortality of mouth brooding tilapiines of the Kafue...

Growth and mortality of Oreochromis andersonii, Oreochromis macrochir and Oreochromis niloticus of the Kafue Floodplain fishery were investigated between September, 2015 and November, 2015. This study was aimed at investigating the growth and mortality of mouth brooding tilapiines of the Kafue...

Mining and smelting processes are among the key sources of soil contamination by heavy metals resulting in dramatic disturbances and loss of biodiversity. Phytoremediation is a cost effective technology that involves the efficient use of plants to eliminate or immobilize environmental...
