LR04: LR04 Benthic Stack

In mcrucifix/pleistocene: Datasets of glacial cycles (ice and ocean)

Description

The LR04 stack spans 5.3 Myr and is an average of 57 globally distributed benthic d18O records (which measure global ice volume and deep ocean temperature) collected from the scientific literature. The records were placed on a common age model using a graphic correlation technique [Lisiecki and Lisiecki, 2002].
