Modelling the role of groundwater hydro-refugia in East African hominin evolution and dispersal
Water is a fundamental resource, but its role in hominin evolution is not well explored. Here, the authors use a combination of groundwater, climate and agent-based models to show that groundwater availability may be critical to past patterns of taxonomic diversity in hominin development in East Afr...
