| description | Water is the most crucial factor in shaping the land and regulating the climate. It is an important component of living beings as it performs unique and indispensable activities on earth, ecosystems, biosphere, and biochemical cycles. The freshwater ecosystems of the world comprise only about 0.5% of the earth’s surface and have a volume of 2.84x105 Km3. Rivers constitute an insignificant amount (0.1%) of the land surface. Only 0.01% of the waters of the earth occur in river channels. In spite of these low quantities, running waters are of enormous significance (Wetzel, 2001). River Rwabakazi is a crucial natural resource in Kabale Town, Uganda. It supports diverse ecosystems, provides water for domestic use, agriculture, and industry, and sustains local biodiversity. The river's health is directly linked to the well-being of the communities that depend on it for their livelihoods. Ensuring the sustainability of this water resource is vital for maintaining ecological balance and supporting socio-economic development in the region. The main purpose of this research was to comprehensively study about the contribution of human activities to the pollution of
River Rwabakazi through its tributaries around Kabale Town. |
