NOAA/WDS Paleoclimatology - Lake Malawi 1.2 Million Year Ostracod and Geochemical Lake Level Data
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. The data include parameters of paleolimnology with a geographic location of Malawi, Eastern Africa. The time period coverage is from 1219118 to 10475 in calendar years before present (BP). See metadata information for parameter and study location details. Please cite this study when using the data.
