Die Zentral-Kalahari besteht aus einem riesigen Becken, in dem sich durch Erosion weicher Gesteine Sande ablagerten.
Vor einigen zehntausend Jahren wurden die Dünen durch Pflanzenwuchs stabilisiert, so dass die Bezeichnung Trockensavanne auch zutreffend wäre.
Dadurch gibt es hier – in Gegensatz zur Namib-Wüste in Namibia – keine Wanderdünen.
www.happyholidaynamibia.comThe Central Kalahari consists of a huge basin in which sands from eroded soft rock formations have been deposited.
Some tens of thousands of years ago the dunes were stabilised by plant growth, so that the description “dry savannah” would also be suitable.
Therefore, in contrast to the Namib, no barchan dunes are found in the Kalahari.
