Paleoclimate reconstructions are fundamental to our understanding of past climate. They are calculated using paleoclimate archives—tree rings, ice cores, sediment cores, and more—and statistical methods. At Presto, you can browse a selection of published paleoclimate reconstructions, learn more about data analysis, conduct your own reconstructions, or learn more about this project.
