dc.description.abstract | Stable oxygen and carbon isotope ratios in the shells of the freshwater gastropod, Melanoides tuberculata, collected at five early Holocene sites in the Chalbi Basin of north-central Kenya, have been measured. These ratios indicate that at 10,000–11,000 yr.ago, paleo Lake Chalbi was a freshwater lake of considerable stability, despite its large extent and shallow depth. | en_US |
