Preparation of this document
This is a collection of papers presented at the Third Session of the Stock Assessment Working Group of the FAO Committee for the Inland Fisheries of Africa in Lusaka, Zambia, 30 September to 2 October 1985.
The theme of the third session was “predator-prey relationships, population dynamics and fisheries productivities of large African lakes”.
Dr. Digby Lewis was contracted by FAO to edit the papers.
Abstract |
This volume contains 11 papers prepared on the theme of predator-prey relationships, population dynamics and fisheries productivities of African Lakes. The lakes include Malawi, Tanganyika, Victoria, Kivu, Kioga and Abaya as well as Kariba Reservoir. |
The papers were prepared for the FAO Committee for Inland Fisheries of Africa Working Group on Stock Assessment, Third Session held in Lusaka, Zambia in September 1985. |
