i am writing an essay about the receding ice on kilimanjaro and need some scientific stuff to make it sound good.


help ?

ps. book references would be especially appreciated

I have some good general texts on climate change that I am not using at the moment so you might find helpful, gimme a bell if you need them and I'll drop them round.

Journals (log into athens):

Typed in glacial recession on kilimanjaro..

I couldn't help you with the science without some background on what's happening/reading up on it but if you have a more specific question I'll try and help. Search on google scholar there are dozens of papers about the ice cap on kilamanjaro retreating, 100s about ice retreat and 1000s on climate change.

Wikipedia. Nuff' said.

wikipedia is fantastic. i love it. unfortunatly my lecturer is not such a fan and i cant reference it : (

thanks MILF-Hunter!

i did a third year module in quaternary geology and glaciation, that would have some general stuff and some of it would be referenceable let me know if you want me to dig it out
