In November 2021, Dr. Simon Kübler had the chance to talk on BBC Earth about the role of Ol Doinyo Lengai volcano in northern Tanzania, and its carbonatitic volcanic ash in providing nutrients for soils and animals in the Serengeti ecosystem. The study is based on results obtained during a field campaign in 2019, in collaboration with Eileen Eckmeier (University of Kiel), Stephen Rucina (National Museums of Kenya, Nairobi), and Akida Meya (Nelson Mandela Institute of Science and Technology, Arusha, Tanzania).
