recorded in this
ocean sediment

records of regional climate and
ocean circulation covering the past 1.2 million years.
High - resolution
ocean sediment
cores can sometimes be found that fit this, as can some cave (speleothem)
records and pollen
records etc..
Paleoclimate: I don't know for sure, but this
record is too long (1 million years) to be an ice
core, so I'm guessing it's a stacked sediment
core, showing delta - O18 from
ocean foraminifera.
Bi-polar
ocean linkages: evidence from late Holocene Antarctic marine and Greenland ice -
core records.
There are also a number of paleoclimatic recorders of oxygen isotopes, including lake /

core record (now 800 kyr).
In my briefings to the Association of Small Island States in Bali, the 41 Island Nations of the Caribbean, Pacific, and Indian
Ocean (and later circulated to all member states), I pointed out that IPCC had seriously and systematically UNDERESTIMATED the extent of climate change, showing that the sensitivity of temperature and sea level to CO2 clearly shown by the past climate
record in coral reefs, ice
cores, and deep sea sediments is orders of magnitude higher than IPCC's models.
Now the locations of avaialble proxy data (tree rings, ice
cores,
ocean sediment
records, corals etc.) are not necessarily optimally spread out, but the spatial sampling error is actually quite easy to calculate, and goes into the error bars shown on most reconstructions.
You may now understand why global temperature, i.e.
ocean heat content, shows such a strong correlation with atmospheric CO2 over the last 800,000 years — as shown in the ice
core records.
There are also a number of paleoclimatic recorders of oxygen isotopes, including lake /
ocean records, speleothems (in caves), corals, ice

Past climates have left
records in ice and
ocean - sediment
cores that provide some of the best available evidence.1 A couple of kilometres beneath the surface of the Antarctic and Greenland ice - sheets lies ice which has been there for tens of thousands of years.
Neither such a large increase or decrease, nor a recovery in less than a decade is seen in the d13C
record: less than 0.1 per mil decrease in atmosphere (ice
cores) and upper
oceans (sponges) 1935 - 1950.
This retreat immediately followed a period of maximum Holocene warmth that is
recorded in some ice
cores and occurred at the same time as an influx of warmer
ocean water onto the Antarctic Peninsula shelf.
A strong correlation between the
ocean core temps and the instrument
record would normally strengthen the reliability of the historical reconstruction.
The dD
record is directly related to the temperature of most of the SH
oceans, where the pecipitation of the Vostok ice
core originated.
Proxy
records of sea level are preserved in a variety of marine and terrestrial settings, such as sediments and organisms in deep
ocean cores or once - submerged shorelines, and uplifted fossil reefs.
Large changes in climate are
recorded in ice
cores,
ocean mud and over the last two centuries, instrumental
records.
The ubiquitous character of certain events further confirms their importance: «the Younger Dryas and a large number of abrupt changes during the last ice age called Dansgaard / Oeschger events (23 abrupt changes into a climate of near - modern warmth and out again, during the last glacial period) have been corroborated in multiple ice
cores from Greenland, Antarctica and tropical mountains, marine sediments from the North Atlantic
Ocean, the tropical Atlantic, eastern Pacific, and Indian
Oceans, and from various
records on land.
Temperature has gone up and down but it is difficult to measure precisely with the proxy
records of ice
cores the Anarctic and Greenland and sediment
cores in the
ocean.
Even if a location in Antarctica stayed exactly the same temperature for 100,000 years, the ice
core at that location would tell the temperature
record of the
ocean that evaporated the water that fell as snow at that location.
It clearly shows CO2 following the temperature, due to the effect of the
oceans but, as far as I'm aware, the ice
core records show not a single instance of temperature following changes in CO2.
Examinations of paleoclimate temperatures and other variables
recorded in both North Atlantic
ocean sediments and Greenland ice
cores (e.g., Lehman and Keigwin, 1992; Alley et al., 1993; Taylor et al., 1993) have led to suggestions that the AMOC
Proxy
records of climate, like those derived from ice
cores and
ocean sediment
cores, track the big - picture changes well but can't provide the same level of local detail we have for the past century.
Composed of 450 instrumental
records from temperature stations sheltered from
