Datos del proyecto
The growing of fish in cages is a new venture in Uganda, and was first established in 2010 in Napoleon Gulf by Source of Nile Fish (SON) farm. This work is part of an ongoing quarterly monitoring of the SON fish cages. The data presented provide useful baseline information on cage fish farming on Lake Victoria.

| Descripción del área de estudio | The study area was in Napoleon Gulf, Northern part of Lake Victoria (Ugandan portion) |
| Descripción del diseño | Monitoring sampling is being done on a quarterly basis with three major transects; downstream, within and upstream of cages from 2011 to current. In the data, the transects are described in location remarks. For more information on the research design, see Egessa et al. (2018). |

Métodos de muestreo
Zooplankton samples were collected with a conical plankton net (Nansen type; mesh size 60 µm; mouth diameter 0.25 m), towed vertically through the water column, as described by Mwebaza-Ndawula (1994). Each sample was washed with tap water in the laboratory over a 53 µm sieve to remove the preservative and then diluted to a suitable volume, depending on the concentration of organisms in each sample. Sub-samples of 2, 2, 5 and 10 mL were taken with a wide bore automatic pipette from a well agitated sample. The sub-sample series were performed to consider the more abundant organisms in 2, 2 mL series, and the rarer organisms in 2, 2, 5, 10 mL series. Each sub-sample was put into a counting chamber and examined under inverted microscope (Hund, Wetzlar, Germany) at X100 magnification for taxonomic determination, and X40 for counting and organism body measurements.
| Área de Estudio | An annual quarterly monitoring sampling is ongoing since 2011 and the current data presents datasets from 2011 to June 2020 for Napoleon Gulf, northern Lake Victoria. Three transects; downstream, within, and upstream cages, with accompanying control point sites were established. However, the sampling design has so far been distorted due to changes in cage setup and expansion of cages within the Napoleon Gulf. |

| Control de Calidad | Some zooplankton were able to be identified to species level using published taxonomic keys (Sars 1895; Pennak 1953; Brooks 1957; Rutner-Kolisko 1974; Koste 1978; Boxshall & Braide 1991; Korinek 1999). Taxonomic names were cross-checked using the World Register of Marine Species (WoRMS). Volume densities of organisms were calculated from the counts data, with reference to the sample net mouth diameter and water column depth at each sampling site (Mwebaza-Ndawula, 1998). |
Descripción de la metodología paso a paso:
- Collection of the zooplankton In the field, a conical plankton net (Nansen type; mesh size 60 µm; mouth diameter 0.25 m), towed vertically through the water column to have an integrated sample. Three hauls were taken per site and were combined to make a composite sample.
- Preserving the samples The composite sample was preserved with sugar-formalin mixture. The sugar was to stop the ballooning of cladocerans for easy identification.
- Identification of zooplankton taxa In the laboratory, samples were washed using a sieve of 53 µm to remove the fixatives. Organisms were identified to the smallest taxonomic level possible using taxonomic keys (Sars, 1895, Pennak, 1953, Brooks, 1957, Rutner-Kolisko, 1974, Koste, 1978, Boxshall and Braide, 1991, Korinek, 1999). Density of organisms were calculated from the counts data, with reference to the sample net mouth diameter and water column depth at each sampling site (Mwebaza-Ndawula, 1998)
