Lake Naivasha, Kenya: ecology, society and future
This study examines the degradation of the natural capital and ecosystem services of an important tropical lake
Abstract
We examine the degradation of the natural capital and ecosystem services of an important tropical lake, Kenya’s Lake Naivasha, in the context of human activities and exploitation since the mid-20th century. These factors have culminated in the recent emergence of innovative governance arrangements with potential contributions to the future sustainability of the lake ecosystem.
