Proxy data

Zip file containing .csv files of all proxy records listed in Tables A1 and A2 of the paper "Was the Little Ice Age more or less El Niño-like than the Medieval Climate Anomaly? Evidence from hydrological and temperature proxy data".

Tree ring records taken from the Mann et al. (2008) dataset are in a separate folder called "Mann2008". These are named as abbreviated location followed by a core number.

All other file names follow the format [author][yyyy][optional suffix].

Each file contains a "YearBP" column (age in years before present) and a column with proxy data points.

All proxy records in this collection were originally downloaded from the NOAA Paleoclimatology/Pangaea Databases (https://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/data-access/paleoclimatology-data/datasets), including the Mann et al. (2008) tree ring dataset and the Tierney et al. (2015) coral dataset.
