NOAA/WDS Paleoclimatology - Western Canada Late Pleistocene Permafrost Caves Speleothem U/Th Data
This archived Paleoclimatology Study is available from the NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI), under the World Data Service (WDS) for Paleoclimatology. The associated NCEI study type is Cave. The data include parameters of speleothems (age control) with a geographic location of Canada. The time period coverage is from 500000 to 1780 in calendar years before present (BP). See metadata information for parameter and study location details. Please cite this study when using the data.
