NOAA/WDS Paleoclimatology - Lake Tanganyika 60,000 Year TEX86 LST and dD 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 climate reconstructions|paleolimnology with a geographic location of Lake Tanganyika, Eastern Africa. The time period coverage is from 59454 to 1313 in calendar years before present (BP). See metadata information for parameter and study location details. Please cite this study when using the data.
