Abstract:Due to the continued increase in land use changes and changing climatic patterns in the Lake Victoria basin, understanding the impacts of these changes on the water quality of Lake Victoria is imperative for safeguarding the integrity of the freshwater ecosystem. Thus, we analyzed spatial and temporal patterns of land cover, precipitation, and water quality changes in the Lake Victoria basin from 2000 to 2022 using processed remote sensing (RS) data. Focusing on chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) and turbidity (TUR) in Lak… Show more
