Summary
Abstract: The CLIMAP (Climate: Long-Range Investigation, Mapping, and
Prediction) Project was funded by the National Science Foundation as
part of the International Decade of Ocean Exploration (IDOE). The
CLIMAP Surface Configuration Data Set was compiled by Oregon State
University, and contains raw data for certain Climatic boundary
conditions during the last glacial maximum, and for the present which
