Lake Bogoria

There are contradictions regarding its altitude. Unesco's Ramsar gives 963 m (3,159 ft). More precise — and more prudent —, Renaut & Owen 1991 give c. 990 m as of August 1977, but also indicate that the lake's level fluctuates seasonally by 50 to 100 cm; and that it can vary by several meters for short periods, having fluctuated between c. 988 and c. 996 m during the 20th century. Lake-shore terraces around the shoreline, made of coarse angular gravel and angular orthoconglomerates, mark higher lake levels from the Pleistocene and Holocene. They are visible on 45% of the present level, and some are about 9 m above the present shoreline.
