Groundbreaking Book Uses AI to Unlock 50 Years of Lake Victoria's Water Secrets

We are pleased to announce the publication of the second edition of the transformative study, Lake Victoria from Space and AI Perspective. This pioneering work showcases how groundbreaking Artificial Intelligence (AI) applications have converted over 20 years of GRACE and GRACE-FO satellite observations into a comprehensive 50-year hydrological record for Africa's Lake Victoria Basin.

This book unravels critical, long-standing mysteries—from the dramatic 2018–2019 surge in lake levels to the dynamics of disruptive floating islands and hidden groundwater systems. By fusing cutting-edge AI with remote sensing and socio-economic analysis, it provides unprecedented insights into how climate variability and human activity jointly govern water security, flood-drought cycles, and regional economies.

Praised by experts as a work that "redefines our understanding of Africa’s largest lake system," this volume is an essential resource for climate scientists, water resource managers, engineers, and policymakers committed to sustainable development and harnessing technology for real-world environmental solutions.
