Summary
Abstract: The Global Lake Status Data Base (GLSDB: Kohfeld and Harrison, 2000, Harrison
et al., 2003) is a long-standing international effort to compile the geomorphic
and biostratigraphic data for changes in lake status, in order to document
changes in regional water balance during the last 30,000 14C kyr. Developed
with data-model comparisons as a primary objective, the GLSDB ... View entire text
