Global Benthic
Stack
Description
A global Pliocene-Pleistocene benthic stack.
Usage
lisiecki2005
Format
A data.frame
with 2115 observations and 3 variables:
- age
numeric
: calendar age (kilo year cal BP).- delta
numeric
: benthic(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 records (which measure global ice
volume and deep ocean temperature) collected from the scientific literature.
