One of the keys to predicting climate change is the modelling of how greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from natural ecosystems might evolve. This first requires estimating as accurately as possible the ...

A new study reassesses emissions of carbon dioxide and methane into the atmosphere from African lakes. While it was previously assumed that these lakes were significant carbon dioxide sources, it has ...

The emissions of carbon dioxide (CO 2) and methane (CH 4)—the most potent greenhouse gases—into the atmosphere from African lakes are reassessed in a study undertaken by the Laboratory of Chemical ...

It is one of the world's most spectacular sights -- huge flocks or 'flamboyances' of flamingos around East Africa's lakes -- as seen in the film Out of Africa or David Attenborough's A Perfect Planet.

The TEAL project is designed to improve environmental monitoring in the African Great Lakes. We are building field spectrometers for measuring the optical properties of lakes. Deployment of autonomous ...

Africa’s Great Lakes are experiencing a significant rise in water levels, a phenomenon that has captured the attention of scientists, environmentalists, and the global community. While Africa is often ...
