This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution International License (CC BY). http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Abstract Water resources of a country constitute one of its vital assets that significantly contribute to the socio-economic development and poverty eradication. However, this resource is unevenly distri- buted in both time and space. The major source of water for these resources is direct rainfall, which is recently experiencing variability that threatens the distribution of resources and water availability in Uganda. The annual rainfall received in Uganda varies from 500 mm to 2800 mm, with an average of 1180 mm received in two main seasons. The spatial distribution of rainfall has resulted into a network of great rivers and lakes that possess big potential for development. These resources are being developed and depleted at a fast rate, a situation that requires assessment to establish present status of water resources in the country. The paper reviews the characteristics, availability, demand and importance of present day water resources in Uganda as well as describ- ing the various issues, challenges and management of water resources of the country.

The major aquatic systems of the Victoria and Kyoga lake basins Item Type book_section Authors Nagayi, J. Publisher Fisheries Resources Research Institute Download date 07/10/2021 10:31:38 Link to Item http://hdl.handle.net/1834/35202 CHAPTER THREE The major aquatic systems of the Victoria and Kyoga lake basins (~9·) 1. Introduction 1.1 Background The Victoria and Kyoga lake basins fonn the major aquatic system of this study (Fig. 1). The two lake basins share a common evolutionary history and have similar native fish faunas (Graham 1929, Worthington 1929). The two main lakes have also had similar impacts by introduction of Nile perch Lates niloticus and therefore these two lakes can be considered to be similar for ichiogeographical purposes. These lake basins have many satellite lakes isolated from one another and from the main laKes Victoria and Kyoga by swamps and other barriers. Some of these satellite lakes still possess stocks of endemic fish species which are almost extinct from the main water bodies. It was therefore considered that understanding of these lakes would contribute to the knowledge base required to solve some of the problems experienced in Lake Victoria and Kyoga especially the loss in trophic diversity arising. The study was carried out in these two main water bodies (Kyoga and Victoria) and on other satellite lakes e.g Wamala, Kachera, Mburo, Kayanja and Kayugi in the Victoria lake basin and lakes Nawampasa, Nyaguo, Agu, Gigate, Lemwa and Kawi in the Kyoga lake basin (Figs. 2, 3, 4, 5 & 6). 1. 2 Lake Victoria Lake Victoria is the largest tropical lake in the world and comprises some territory of Tanzania, Kenya and Uganda.

The Potential for Further Proliferation of Water Hyacinth in Lakes Victoria, Kyoga and Kwania and Some Urgent Aspects for Research!
Afr. 1. Trop. Hydrobiol. Fish. (1995) 6,1-10 The Potential for further proliferation of Water Hyacinth in Lakes Victoria, Kyoga and Kwania and some urgent aspects for research! T. TWONGO, EW.B. BUGENYI AND E WANDA Fisheries Research Institute P.O. Box 343, Jinja, Uganda ABSTRACT Shore environments of lakes Victoria and Kyoga with potential for the establishment and proliferation of water hyacinth were identified. They are characterised by: (i) shelter from violent off-shore and along-the-shore wind and wave action (ii) flat or gentle slope under relatively shallow water, and (iii) a muddy bottom rich in organic matter. Such environments are strongly associated with emergent macrophytes of papyrus, Vossia sp and, at times Typha sp where Pistia stratiotes, species of Ceratophyllum, Myriophylum and Nymphaea also occur. In Lake Kyoga association with Vossia sp facilitated establishment of water hyacinth even along wind-swept shores and promoted extension of mats of the two machrophytes into the open lake. Urgent research on water hyacinth is proposed in the areas of nutrient relations, weed biology and on its impact on the biodiversity resource, with particular emphasis on the fishery component. Findings from the research could facil- itate formulation of weed control options and alternative resource management strategies. A regional approach to address the water hyacinth menace is highly recommended. INTRODUCTION water supply.

Rainbows, Pythons and Waterfalls : Heritage, Poverty and Sacrifice Among the Busoga in Uganda
RAINBOWS, PYTHONS AND WATERFALLS WATERFALLS PYTHONS AND RAINBOWS, heritage is a fundamental part of society and crucial in any development process; yet because of the complexity, it has proved di cult to incorporate culture and tradition in actual policy practice. Here the rich heritage of the Busoga is explored, using the water cosmology at the Itanda Falls in Uganda, with Rainbows, pythons and a speci c emphasis on a rainmaking ritual and sacri ce Heritage, poverty and sacri ce to the rain-god during a drought. While rainmaking among the Busoga in Uganda rituals cannot mitigate climate change in the modern waterfalls world, and while fewer and fewer people believe in the traditional religion, the past and its traditions are still sources for the future. As we rethink the role of heritage in the processes of poverty alleviation, it is argued, a strong emphasis on cultural and natural heritage is one of the most e cient and important areas of long-term development in an era of globalization, when traditions are disappearing. Without a past, there is no future. is an archaeologist, researcher and Docent at the Department of Archaeology and Ancient History, Uppsala University, Sweden.
