What are some of the large lakes in Africa?

Lake Victoria, Lake Tanganyika and Lake Nyasa all stand out as pretty good sized. They are part of the so-called African Great Lakes, or African Great Lakes system. A link can be found below to an article complete with a map. Note that these lakes are measured by area and not by water volume. Lake Chad, which is considered the fourth largest of the African lakes, has a large area that varies greatly because it is so shallow. In a really wet year, it is huge, but a little water loss causes the lake to contract greatly. Additionally, Lake Tanganyika, though it has approximately half the surface area of Lake Victoria, has approximately six times the volume of water in it!

How much sunlight does Lake Tanganyika receive?

Lake Tanganyika is very near the equator (3.3 to 8.9 degrees south latitude), in tropical Africa, so it receives considerable sunlight despite having about the same day length year-round. However, cloud cover is much greater in the summer "wet" season (November to April). The temperatures in the rift valley are typically from the high 60s to the low 80s (Fahrenheit).
