Abstract:
Estimates of Last Glacial Maximum annual mean seawater temperatures at 50 m depth. The temperature estimates are derived using the Modern Analogue Technique using the ForCenS synthesis (https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.873570; https://doi.org/10.1038/sdata.2017.109) and World Ocean Atlas 1998 temperature (http://www.nodc.noaa.gov/oc5/woa98.html) for calibration. Dissimilarity to the core top data was calculated using the square-chord distance and the temperatures are the weighted averages of the 10 closest analogues. Estimates were averaged for sites where more than a single sample is available.
