So using the criteria of «noticeable» climate change that would affect humanity and nature, that can be reasonably validated against the benchmark of the 1920 - 40 period by such records as instrumental and crop, or observations, and as being of a duration of at least one decade, we have some 15 decadal episodes of «noticeable» climate change, (up and down) between1538 and 2012.
The model had to be validated against past observations.
When compared (validated) against historical sea ice observations it was found that the reconstruction not only had a dominant temperature - related signal, but that the proxy - based reconstruction also had a second signal which corresponded with variations in sea ice cover (extent), therefore confirming the 2nd network signal was a proxy for Arctic sea ice cover (as shown in figure 1).
