National Climatic Data Center World Data Center for
Paleoclimatology provides data about past climate and environment
derived from a diverse range of proxies such as tree rings and ice
cores. The proxies are listed by data disciplines. These links provide
access to descriptive information and explanatory notes, links to
maps, searches, visualizations, and more.

NOAA's Paleoclimatology Program provides the paleoclimate
data and information needed to understand and model interannual to
centennial scale environmental change. This site was created to
introduce the topic of global warming, and to show how paleoclimate
data provide a long baseline of past change.

Population, Landscape, and Climate Estimates data set,
PLACE II estimates the number of people (head counts and
percentages) and the land area (square kilometers and percentages)
represented within each class of a number of demographic, physical,
biological, and climatic variables for each country around the world,
for the years 1990 and 2000. These variables include biomes, climate
zones, coastal proximity zones, elevation zones, and population
density zones. Columbia University.
