Assessing cyanobacteria risks in Ugandan crater lakes through historical and contemporary perspectives
REFNo: NS679ES
- To reconstruct phycological time series to establish baseline conditions in the Crater Lake district of western Uganda and determine if (and when) cyanobacteria abundance and toxin-producing potential have changed over time. (Paleolimnology)
2) To examine the historical and societal influence of local (e.g., land use) and regional (e.g., climate) stressors on regulating cyanobacteria abundance and toxin-producing potential. (Paleolimnology)
3) To characterize spatiotemporal variation in cyanobacteria risks and determine the societal influences of local (e.g., land use) and regional (e.g., climate) stressors on regulating cyanobacteria abundance and toxin-producing potential. (Field Survey)
