| dc.description | Located in the central plains of Cambodia, the Tonle Sap lake is one of the richest inland fisheries waters in the world. Linked to the Mekong river by a 100 km-long channel, the lake is flushed and swollen to more than four times its normal size by the annual monsoon flooding in the Mekong. The lake and the channel yield two-thirds of Cambodia's annual inland fisheries catch, which accounts for nearly 90 percent of the country's total fisheries production. The study describes different fisherie s habitats and assesses catches by the popular Tonle Sap fishing gear in two communes in the northwestern Siem Reap province bordering the lake. | |
