Different measurements from Lake Nakuru through time. This includes diatoms that represent at least 10% in one sample ; T. Index which shows potential depth; conductivity (amount of salts in the lake); aridity (Dim1 and K/Ti); biological productivity (Dim2, Ca/Mg, Si/Zr, Sr/Ti, and inc/coh); and anoxia (Dim3, Mo, and Fe/Mn). Global climate phases are highlighted with the anticipated dry phase (Last Glacial Maximum, LGM) in brown and the anticipated wet phase in blue (Bølling–Allerød interstadial, B-A).
