Details

Published age and published temperature were extracted from Shakun, J. D., Clark, P. U., He, F., Marcott, S. A., Mix, A. C., Liu, Z., … Bard, E. (2012). Global warming preceded by increasing carbon dioxide concentrations during the last deglaciation. Nature, 484(7392), 49–54. doi:10.1038/nature10915 .

Sediment accumulation rates were estimated by fitting splines to the published age and depth estimates.
