Hyatt Regency Hotel Savannah, Georgia January 29 – February 1, 2015 Welcome to the 2015 Spring Meeting of the Southern Division, American Fisheries Society Hyatt Regency Hotel Savannah, Georgia January 29 – February 1, 2015 Welcome to the 2015 Spring Meeting of the Southern Division, American Fisheries Society Welcome to Savannah! The Georgia Chapter is thrilled to be hosting so many of our colleagues for the 2015 Southern Division meeting. This promises to be one of the largest SDAFS meetings ever and we know that we’ve got something planned for everyone. In addition to committee meetings, a great selection of workshops, and over 300 oral presentations and posters, we’ve got some exciting social events planned for you, culminating in a Saturday night banquet held right on the riverfront. All conference events will take place in the Hyatt Regency Savannah. While there’s no need to leave the Hyatt for any official events, we hope you’ll take advantage of what Savannah has to offer. Savannah’s famous River Street is just outside the hotel doors, and you will find numerous restaurants, bars, and shops along the river. City Market is just a few blocks away as well, so be sure to explore this area at some point to find some of the city’s best entertainment. Savannah is a very walkable city, with numerous historic squares throughout the downtown area, so feel free to explore. Consider taking a riverboat cruise or a carriage ride for another way to see what the city has to offer. Whatever you choose, we know that you’ll have a great time in one of Georgia’s most historic and charming cities. Should you have any questions or concerns during the meeting, please feel free to find any member of our organizing committee and we’ll be happy to help. The command center for the meeting is located on the ground floor in the Savannah room, and you should be able to track someone down there at any point during meeting hours. The hotel staff will also be happy to help you should you have any issues with guest rooms. I’d like to say thank you to the meeting organizing committee as well as numerous other Georgia Chapter members for helping to put this event on for our colleagues across the South. Having attended many Southern Division meetings in the past, I certainly now have a much greater appreciation for the amount of work that these folks put in to make things run smoothly behind the scenes. Finally, a huge thanks goes out to all of our generous sponsors. Without them, this meeting would not be financially possible, so please take the time to visit them in our trade show and show them your support. I hope everyone has a wonderful time in Savannah!

PREFACE The Research for the Management of the Fisheries on Lake Tanganyika project (Tanganyika Research) became fully operational in January 1992. It is executed by the Food and Agriculture organization of the United Nations (FAO) and funded by the Finnish International Development Agency (FINNIDA). This project aims at the determination of the biological basis for fish production on Lake Tanganyika, in order to permit the formulation of a coherent lake-wide fisheries management policy for the four riparian States (Burundi, Tanzania, Zaïre and Zambia). Particular attention will be also given to the reinforcement of the skills and physical facilities of the fisheries research units in all four beneficiary countries as well as to the buildup of effective coordination mechanisms to ensure full collaboration between the Governments concerned.
