Description
Database from paleo-climate studies from the global ocean. more

IMAGES is an international collaborative science programme aimed at the collection and interpretation of high quality paleo-climate data from the global ocean. It aims to understand the role of marine processes in the Earth´s climate system during the past million years at time-scales relevant to human life and societal development. Data, which are produced through the work are archived at a world data center to ensure easy access from other scientists and the public. The goals of IMAGES demand that collected data are archived and data exchange is made possible. Ultimately, all data, aquired from IMAGES material should be freely accessible for the entire scientific community.
