 	About the Talk:\n
 \n
 	This study 
 was carried out in Lake Kijanebalola, a small 
 satellite lake in the Lake Victoria basin, 
 in 2007 and then in 2015. A total of 14 fish 
 species were identified but catches declined 
 drastically between the two sampling periods 
 owing to intensive fishing pressure. Juvenile 
 fish were concentrated in shallow inshore 
 areas. The water quality changed between 2007 
 and 2015, with significant increases in temperature, 
 oxygen concentrations, pH and BOD, 
 suggesting that the lake had become eutrophic. 
 There was a significant decrease in fecal coliforms 
 in the water suggesting improved sanitation 
 in the lake basin. Recommendations for 
 management of the fishery and catchment area 
 through community involvement and education 
 have been included.\n
