Sediment layers from Lake Prokoško used to study historical climate changes

Study Reconstructs 16,000 Years of Summer Temperature Changes in Western Balkans

Audio narration · Coming soon

Researchers at Eötvös Loránd University have reconstructed summer temperature changes over the past 16,000 years using sediment data from Lake Prokoško in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The study reveals the region's climate response to rapid changes at the end of the last glacial period, variations during the Holocene, and increasing effects of human land use.
