First record of epizootic ulcerative syndrome from the Upper Congo catchment: An outbreak in the Bangweulu swamps, Zambia [PDF]
AbstractWe report on the first outbreak of epizootic ulcerative syndrome (EUS) amongst wild fish populations in the Bangweulu swamps, an inland delta, in the north of Zambia during 2014. The area supports a large and diverse fish fauna related to, but distinct from, that of the Zambezi River system where EUS outbreaks have occurred since 2006.

A novel index to aid in prioritizing habitats for site-based conservation. [PDF]
We developed and tested a novel conservation priority index (CPI) that ranks habitats to aid in prioritizing them for conservation. The species richness, endemicity, threat status, and surface area were incorporated in the index. Abstract Funding biodiversity conservation strategies are usually minimal, thus prioritizing habitats at high risk should be

ANALYSING THE FINANCIAL VIABILITY OF THE 50MW BANGWEULU SOLAR PLANT IN ZAMBIA USING FINPLAN
The financial viability of the Bangweulu 50 MW Power Plant using FINPLAN was analysed by exploring three scenarios to assess the impact on shareholder dividends in a solar power plant project. The first scenario involved varying electricity prices, indicating that the base price of ZMW 1.5 per KWh resulted in the highest dividends and the shortest ...
