NOAA/WDS Paleoclimatology - The seismic-stratigraphic record of lake-level fluctuations in Lake Challa: hydrological stability and change in equatorial East-Africa over the last 140 kyr

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 Lake Level Reconstruction. The data include parameters of lake levels|paleolimnology with a geographic location of Kenya, Eastern Africa. The time period coverage is from 127710 to -60 in calendar years before present (BP). See metadata information for parameter and study location details. Please cite this study when using the data.
