Abstract

Records of Earth's past climates (eg, from tree rings, marine sediments, ice, and corals) are key to understanding natural variability within the climate system and for testing the climate models used to project future climate. At present, there are a number of social and technical barriers that prevent the full use of these paleoclimate observations. PaleoCube lowers these barriers by bringing scientists of diverse perspectives to work in the cloud. On the technical side, PaleoCube relies on four key components:(1) a knowledge base for paleoclimate records that can support complex querying,(2) software meant to query and manipulate the datasets stored in the knowledge base and/or in local folders,(3) software libraries designed to analyze paleoclimate time series, and (4) exemplar notebooks and other tutorials to help the scientific community to develop fluency in these software. In addition, PaleoCube supports …
