Mean Annual Temperature, Methane, Total Air Content, Delta 15N-N2, and Delta Age from the Greenland Ice Sheet Project Two (GISP2), North Greenland Eemian Ice Drilling (NEEM), and North Greenland Ice Core Project (NGRIP) ice cores, 0-18 thousand years before present

We present new measurements of methane (CH4), nitrogen isotopes (d15N-N2), and total air content (TAC) from the North Greenland Eemian Ice Drilling (NEEM), North Greenland Ice Core Project (NGRIP), and Greenland Ice Sheet Project Two (GISP2) Greenland ice cores from the Last Glacial Maximum through the late Holocene (0 to ~18 thousand years before present [ka BP]). These records provide insight into spatial pattern of Greenland climate evolution across the deglaciation and the Holocene Thermal Maximum. The methane data allow for gas-phase synchronization of ice cores across Greenland and Antarctica, providing empirical delta age reconstructions. The nitrogen isotopic composition data allow for reconstruction of abrupt Greenland surface climate variations, which is provided for all 3 sites. Data are a combination of measurements conducted at Oregon State University, Scripps Institution of Oceanography, and the National Institute for Polar Research using previously established techniques.
