Multiproxy Reconstruction of Pliocene North Atlantic Sea Surface Temperatures and Implications for Rainfall in North Africa

This dataset accompanies the publication by Wycech et al. "Multiproxy Reconstruction of Pliocene North Atlantic Sea Surface Temperatures and Implications for Rainfall in North Africa" in <em>Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology</em>. The dataset is comprised of the raw paleo-proxy (Mg/Ca ratios and U^k’₃₇) data and reconstructed sea surface temperatures (SSTs) from the early Pliocene (5 Ma) to modern. The provided data were input into the accompanying R codes, which executed principal component analysis and generated the results described in Wycech et al.本数据集配套Wycech等人发表于《古海洋学与古气候学》（Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology）的论文《上新世北大西洋海表温度多代用指标重建及其对北非降雨的启示》。本数据集包含早上新世（5 Ma）至现代的原始古代用指标（paleo-proxy）数据，具体包括Mg/Ca比值与U₃₇ᵏ’，以及经重建得到的海表温度（Sea Surface Temperatures, SSTs）。配套提供的R语言代码已导入本数据集，执行主成分分析并生成了Wycech等人论文中所述的研究结果。
