Furthermore, our evidence suggests that base camp herd mobility is limited particularly during drought years.
Usually these expeditions operate a long distance away from the base camp, aiming at the procurement of specific resources in specific contexts.
Three sites of 1 ha each were chosen in afroalpine grassland around the base camp.
Each base camp had a high turnover of settlers and there was a lot of movement between base camps.
This suggests that he was in a pre-scorbutic state when he left base camp.
Spatial variability appears to have a more limited impact on base camp mobility.
On the other hand, seasonal variability has a negative impact on both satellite and base camp mobility.
Our evidence suggests that it is precisely base camp herd mobility that is limited during drought years.
