The Impact of Species Changes in African Lakes

Description:

An interdisciplinary work bringing together a wealth of information from many internationally recognized scientists on the impact of species changes engendered by the introduction of fish species, impoundment, and heavy exploitation. Aspects considered include reduction of biodiversity, the conservation of unique endemic fauna, the assessment of changes in habitat, species and genetic diversity the evaluation of economic wealth generated by new fisheries, sustainability and social equity, and comparative forecasts from a range of management scenarios. Of use and of interest to scientists across a wide range of disciplines, including fish biologists and fisheries workers, ecologists, conservationists and environmental scientists, and all those involved in work on introductions, economics of natural resources and development of fisheries.
