NOAA/WDS Paleoclimatology - Eifel Laminated Sediment Archive (ELSA) Vegetation Stack

Published by NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce | Catalog Last Checked: August 02, 2026 at 04:22 AM | Dataset Last Updated: December 09, 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 Lake. The data include parameters of climate reconstructions|paleolimnology|plant macrofossils with a geographic location of Germany, Western Europe. The time period coverage is from 76000 to 0 in calendar years before present (BP). See metadata information for parameter and study location details. Please cite this study when using the data.
