We study the unique solvability of the inverse problem of determining the time-dependent lower order coefficient in a degenerate parabolic equation with one spatial variable under an additional integral observation condition. The unknown absorption coefficient is sought in the space L2(0, T). We prove the time-local existence and global uniqueness of a solution to the inverse problem.
