Millions of fairy circles — circular holes in the grassland, each a few meters wide, forming a characteristic pattern across the entire landscape and visible for miles around — can be found in Namib, about 80-140 kilometers from the coast. The researchers observed intermittent rain in numerous desert locales and analyzed grasses, their roots and shoots, and probable termite root damage.
In addition, they set up soil-moisture sensors near the fairy rings to measure the amount of water in the soil at intervals of 30 minutes, beginning in the dry season of 2020 and ending in the wet season of 2022.
