Bayfish: a model of environmental factors driving fish production in the lower Mekong basin
Type: Conference Proceedings
In tropical floodplain systems local populations are generally highly dependent upon the system’s natural aquatic resources. In such systems the annual fish production depends on a combination of biological and physical ...
Mekong fisheries and mainstream dams: fisheries sections
Type: Report
Twelve hydropower schemes have been proposed for the Lao, Lao-Thai and Cambodian reaches of the Mekong mainstream. Implementation of any or all of the proposed mainstream projects in the Lower Mekong Basin (LMB) could have ...
Balancing hydropower and biodiversity in the Amazon, Congo, and Mekong
Type: Journal Article
The worlds most biodiverse river basins (the Amazon, Congo, and Mekong) are experiencing an unprecedented boom in construction of hydropower dams. These projects address important energy needs, but advocates often overestimate ...
Aquatic resources and environmental variability in Bac Lieu Province (Southern Vietnam)
Type: Book Chapter
The dynamics of aquatic resources in the canals of Sac Lieu Province, in southern Vietnam, are detailed and synthesized in this study. Nekton and eight environmental parameters were monitored in this province between 2004 ...
Integrated management of aquatic resources: a Bayesian Approach to water control and trade-offs in Southern Vietnam
Type: Book Chapter
The BayFish-Bac Lieu model presented in this chapter is a Bayesian model that aims to identify optimal water control regimes and trade-offs between water uses in order to improve management of water-dependent resources in ...
Trends, opportunities and constraints in the contribution of fish to the welfare of rural communities in Cambodia
Type: Report
This report details rural communities' perspectives on the importance of fish, and how it supports the poor. Variability between zones and social groups is detailed, as well as constraints and opportunities in the sector.
A digital approach to surveys in developing countries
Type: Book Chapter
In this paper, the authors present a methodology developed for gathering socioeconomic and environmental survey data in the field. The system is divided into two interfaces: i) an Android tablet with survey software for ...
Analysis of the Cambodian bagnet ("dai") fishery data
Type: Report
This report summarises general and detailed features of catches from the bagnet ("dai") fishery in Cambodia between 1995 and 1999, as monitored by the MRC/DoF/DANIDA Management of the Freshwater Capture Fisheries Project ...
Fish resources in Cambodia (2001-2011)
Type: Book Chapter
Cambodian inland fish resources are part of the Mekong system. With 781 known freshwater and brackish fish species, the Mekong Basin has the second highest fish biodiversity in the world after the Amazon Basin in South ...
BayFish - Tonle Sap: a Bayesian model of the fish production in the Tonle Sap Great Lake, Cambodia.
Type: Conference Paper
Probabilistic Bayesian networks have been used as decision making tools mainly in medicine and economics, but recently they have also been utilized in natural resource management. In this study a Bayesian model is built ...
