Abstract

Tonle Sap Great Lake in Cambodia is a natural flood reservoir of the Mekong River that runs across the country and supports Cambodia’s major inland capture fisheries. Records have shown that during the flood season, the Lake could have water area of about 10,000 km2 and depth of 10-14 m and during the dry season the area is reduced to about 3,000 km2 with depth of less than 1.0 m. During the monsoon season, the Great Lake expands to about 6,000 km2 inside inundated forest creating an enormous ground for breeding, spawning, nursing, and feeding of various freshwater aquatic species (Serywath and Vann, 2009).
