Global Benthic \delta^{18}O Stack
Description
A global Pliocene-Pleistocene benthic \delta^{18}O stack.
Usage
lisiecki2005
Format
A data.frame with 2115 observations and 3 variables:
- age
numeric: calendar age (kilo year cal BP).- delta
numeric: benthic\delta^{18}O(per mil).- error
numeric: standard error (per mil).
Details
The LR04 stack spans 5.3 Myr and is an average of 57 globally distributed
benthic \delta^{18}O records (which measure global ice
volume and deep ocean temperature) collected from the scientific literature.
