Sedimentation in the Lake Victoria catchment and the Winam Gulf.
The need to carry out sedimentation and sediment characteristics study at the river mouths and the lake was contingent upon the supposition that the rivers in the lake Victoria catchment including surface runoffs convey a great deal of assorted sediments, most of which are deposited in the lake thereby causing the lake to continue filling up and affecting the quality of water.
