Published by NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce | Catalog Last Checked: August 02, 2026 at 06:05 AM | Dataset Last Updated: June 06, 2016 at 12:00 AM
This archived Paleoclimatology Study is available from the NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI), under the World Data Service (WDS) for Paleoclimatology. The associated NCEI study type is Climate Reconstruction. The data include parameters of climate reconstructions|corals and sclerosponges|tree ring with a geographic location of Australia/New Zealand. The time period coverage is from 450 to -62 in calendar years before present (BP). See metadata information for parameter and study location details. Please cite this study when using the data.
