Summary

Abstract: The data from figure 1 of Raymo (1997) are presented in the following eleven
data files (one for each core presented). Each data set consists of depth in
core and oxygen isotope data. To construct the age models for these records
use time control points given in Table 2 of the paper. The original reference
for each data set (e.g., where the data was first published) are given here
and in ...
