Evidence for approximately contemporaneous global cooling in sediments that do contain YTT glass shards has been found in marine
core oxygen isotope records from the South China Sea (3), as have terrestrial carbon isotope and pollen records from Northern India and Bengal (23).

In the past decade, paleoclimatologists have reconstructed a
record of climate change over the last millennium by consulting historical documents and examining indicators of temperature change like tree rings, as well as
oxygen isotopes in ice
cores and coral skeletons.
The paleoclimate data, which included mainly changes in the
oxygen isotopes of the calcium carbonate deposits, were then compared to similar
records from other caves, ice
cores, and sediment
records as well as model predictions for water availability in the Middle East and west central Asia today and into the future.
There are also a number of paleoclimatic recorders of
oxygen isotopes, including lake / ocean
records, speleothems (in caves), corals, ice
cores, etc..

Now in a Climate of the Past paper, Seltzer et al. present a new
record of
oxygen isotopes in atmospheric O2 derived from two Antarctic ice
cores.
The stratigraphic framework and related age models of the four sediment
cores used in this study, are based on
oxygen isotope stratigraphy, 10Be stratigraphy, paleomagnetostratigraphy, biostratigraphy, lithostratigraphy, and / or magnetic susceptibility
records (Supplementary Figs. 2 — 5).

A study by Thomas, Dennis et al 2009 [8] derived a high resolution temperature proxy
record from
oxygen isotope ratios from the ice
core.
Note that regional proxies, such as the
oxygen -
isotope temperature reconstructions from the Greenland Ice
Core Project that
record Dansgaard - Oeschger events, often indicate faster regional rates of climate change than the overall global average for glacial - interglacial transitions, just as today warming is more pronounced in Arctic regions than in equatorial regions (Barnosky et al., 2003; Diffenbaugh and Field, 2013).
Oxygen isotope and palaeotemperature
records from six Greenland ice -
core stations temperatures during the Medieval Warm Period (~ AD 800-1100) were about 1 °C warmer than those of the Current Warm Period.
A negative trend is also seen in
oxygen isotope records in Greenland ice
cores (NGRIP - members 2004), which implies that the proxy
records from northern Sweden display a general feature of Holocene climate in the North Atlantic region, possibly linked to orbital forcing of summer insolation.
