Abstract:
The dataset contains long‐term means of δ18Oprecipitation values and temperatures from 84 European sites (GNIP database; IAEA/WMO, 2023), which were used to estimate mean annual (palaeo-) temperatures from the measured oxygen isotope data on horse tooth enamel phosphate. Mean temperatures of the warmest (July/August) and coldest (December/January) periods were considered representative for summer and winter temperatures, respectively, using the peak and trough values of the modelled phosphate data for their calculation.
