# Description & Notes:
#   Interglacial North Atlantic Temperature and Salinity Data.
#   Benthic foraminifer d18O measurements used for the definition of the 5e plateau.
#   Planktonic foraminifer d18O measurements and summer SST used for reconstruction
#   of salinities for the last interglacial. Because the age scale of isotopic substage
#   5e is difficult to build and subjective choices must be made, we decided to put
#   all the cores on the same depth (the depth of core JPC8) and then to constrain
#   the age scale following the age scale of Adkins et al (1997).
