Modern and Last Glacial Maximum Sea Surface Temperature Reconstructions

Sea surface temperature(SST) maps were created by Hostetler and Mix using CLIMAP data as well as estimates done at Oregon State University. SST maps were generated for the Last Glacial Maximum(LGM) and for modern values. Additionally an anomaly map was created to show the differences between the two.
For complete details on the analysis see the full data set description.
