NOAA/WDS Paleoclimatology - Lake Naivasha, Kenya 1,650 Year Salinity and Lake Level Reconstructions
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 Climate Reconstruction. The data include parameters of climate reconstructions|paleolimnology with a geographic location of Kenya, Eastern Africa. The time period coverage is from 1611 to -44 in calendar years before present (BP). See metadata information for parameter and study location details. Please cite this study when using the data.
