摘要: This study presents a toolkit approach for linking land-and lake-based data and models to determine the impact of human activities on water quality rivers lakes. The integrated modelling framework was adapted address specific issues scenarios. Based preliminary results, hypothetical 50% re-forestation Linthipe Watershed in southern part Lake Malawi/Nyasa/Niassa may lead decrease spring peak value total phosphorus concentration from about 15 μg/L 10 top layer (0 – 40 m) lake’s Outlet Basin. Discussions improvement future monitoring programs are also presented.
