    Determinants of plant community along environmental gradients in Geramo forest, the western escarpment of the rift valley of Ethiopia. by Zeleke Assefa Getaneh, Sebsebe Demissew, Zerihun Woldu, Ermias Aynekulu

    Published 2023-01-01
    “…Thus, this study was conducted to investigate plant community types and species diversity in relation to various environmental gradients in Geramo Forest, which is a remnant forest in the western escarpment of the Rift Valley of Ethiopia. Vegetation data were collected in 96 nested plots (20 × 20 m2 and five 1 ×1 m2) laid systematically at a distance of 250 m along 16 line transects, which were laid 300 m apart. …”

    Stromatolites in caves of the Dead Sea Fault Escarpment: implications to latest Pleistocene lake levels and tectonic subsidence by Lisker, S, Vaks, A, Bar-Matthews, M, Porat, R, Frumkin, A

    Published 2009
    “…A varied assemblage of algal stromatolites was encountered in caves along the northern section of the Dead Sea Fault Escarpment. The caves are situated at the lower part of the escarpment at altitudes -310 to -188 m relative to mean sea level (m.s.l.), i.e. ca 110-230 m above the present Dead Sea level. …”
