Quantifying Age and Model Uncertainties in Paleoclimate Data and Dynamical Climate Models with a Joint Inferential Analysis

Jake Carson, Michel Crucifix, Simon P. Preston +1

A major goal in paleoclimate science is to reconstruct historical climates using proxies for climate variables such as those observed in sediment cores, and in the process learn ab…
