Project team:
The project features close collaboration between Ugandan scientists and students from Makerere University and Water Resources Management Department, and their counterparts from University College London (UK) and Institut für Geographie (Austria). To develop new scientists, six students from Makerere University and University College London participated in this expedition. Overall, the team possesses expertise in key fields of hydrology, alpine glaciology, palaeolimnology, palynology, ecology, hydrogeochemistry and geomorphology. Critical logistical support was provided by the Rwenzori Mountaineering Service (guides, cooks, porters) and Uganda Wildlife Authority (project liaison, rangers). Members of the project team are listed on the website.
