🌱💧 Come rain or shine: 10,800 years of #climate history in the #Sahara
A 16-meter-long sediment core from Lake Yoa in Chad reveals a unique climate archive.
Led by the #UniCologne, the study shows that the last African Humid Period (14,800–5,500 years ago) was interrupted by short-term droughts – at least three times, around 9,300, 8,200, and 6,300 years ago.
