Abstract:

The data contain reconstructed mean annual (MAT), summer and winter temperatures from Krems-Wachtberg (33-31 ka cal BP) and Kammern-Grubgraben (24-20 ka cal BP). The data set also contains the reconstructed temperature values, taking into account the respective oceanic source water corrections based on Lea et al. (2002) and Schrag et al. (1996, 2002) for both periods.
