Using geophysics to guide the selection of suitable sites for establishing sustainable earthen fishponds in the Niger-Delta region of Nigeria

Water retention in earthen fishponds throughout a fish farming cycle is challenging due to climate-induced water loss via evapotranspiration, seepages, and lowering of the groundwater table. These processes depend on the soil hydrostratigraphic condition and constitute a major challenge for fish far...
