This archived Paleoclimatology Study is available from the NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI), under the World Data Service (WDS) for Paleoclimatology. The associated NCEI study type is Climate Reconstruction. The data include parameters of climate reconstructions|plant macrofossils|pollen with a geographic location of Global. The time period coverage is from 20000 to 16000 in calendar years before present (BP). See metadata information for parameter and study location details. Please cite this study when using the data.
