"Delta P (mm) estimate is calculated by difference between reconstructed absolute value and the modern precipitation value calculated at each site by the interpolation method on meteorological data, as explained in the paper. Error values are expressed versus the pollen-inferred value and calculated according to the procedure detailed in the paper."
