This project aims to reconstruct the fire history of the East African savanna over the last 4000 years by analyzing levoglucosan in ice cores. The findings will provide insights into past climate changes and human impacts on fire activity.
Tropical savanna fires currently comprise approximately two thirds of the global fire budget, making these fires a dominant factor in global carbon emissions, yet little is known how fires have varied through time.
This project aims to create a fire history of the East African savanna region over the past 4000 years through the direct determination of levoglucosan in the Kilimanjaro ice core (3º04’S; 37º21’E; 5893 masl, 49 m depth).
Levoglucosan is an atmospherically stable molecular tracer of b…
