LAKE LEVELS

Lake level fluctuations can provide important evidence for paleoclimatic conditions, particulary in arid and semiarid areas. Lake levels are particularly sensitive to changes in hydrologic balance due to climatic fluctuations. Lakes may develop and expand if there is an abundance of precipitation and will recede and even dry up (due to evaporation) during prolonged droughts. Lake sediment cores are often drilled to provide stratigraphic clues to past climate conditions.
