 +===== Description =====
  
 These data are a synthesis of existing and available quantitative reconstructions of six //​bioclimatic//​ variables based on fossil pollen for the mid-Holocene and the Last Glacial Maximum. ​ The reconstructions are expressed as anomalies and associated uncertainties on a 2x2-degree grid.  The data were gridded by simple averaging of the reconstructions in individual grid cells, and the uncertainties were obtained by pooling the prediction error estimates of individual reconstructions. ​ No attempt was made to interpolate or fill in empty grid points. These data are a synthesis of existing and available quantitative reconstructions of six //​bioclimatic//​ variables based on fossil pollen for the mid-Holocene and the Last Glacial Maximum. ​ The reconstructions are expressed as anomalies and associated uncertainties on a 2x2-degree grid.  The data were gridded by simple averaging of the reconstructions in individual grid cells, and the uncertainties were obtained by pooling the prediction error estimates of individual reconstructions. ​ No attempt was made to interpolate or fill in empty grid points.

-===== Extension of the Bartlein et al (2011) ​reconstructions =====+  * The data files distributed on the PMIP3 site have been **updated** (from the files originally used in the Bartlein ​2011 paper) in order to correct a few values 
 +  * The three ''​variable_delta_period_ALL_grid_2x2**_ex**''​ **extended** files have the same data as the corresponding ''​variable_delta_period_ALL_grid_2x2''​ files, and include additional (unpublished) speleothem data and a few sites from the //​Shakun ​et al. (2012)// appendix and from the //​Schmittner et al. (2011)// Science paper. ​ These have been used in the //Harrison et al. (2013) benchmarking//​ paper.
