NOAA/WDS Paleoclimatology - Lobatse Cave Geochemical Data from 50900 to 21400 Cal Yr BP

Description

This archived Paleoclimatology Study is available from the NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI), under the World Data Service (WDS) for Paleoclimatology. The associated NCEI study type is Cave. The data include parameters of speleothems with a geographic location of Botswana, Southern Africa. The time period coverage is from 50942 to 21425 in calendar years before present (BP). See metadata information for parameter and study location details. Please cite this study when using the data.
