The LinkedEarth wiki is a platform that (1) enables the curation of publicly-accessible database by paleoclimate experts, and (2) fosters the development of standards, so paleoclimate data are easier to analyze, share, and re-use.

To learn more about the other core LinkedEarth activities, visit our website and follow us on Facebook and Twitter!

Tutorials on how to use the wiki are available on our YouTube channel!
