high-resolution climate records

High-resolution climate records are detailed data sets that capture climate variations with fine time intervals, such as daily or even hourly, rather than just yearly averages. They are obtained from sources like ice cores, tree rings, sediment layers, or advanced instrumental measurements. These records allow scientists to analyze short-term climate changes, identify patterns, and understand natural and human influences on the environment over hundreds or thousands of years. High-resolution data provides a clearer picture of climate dynamics, helping researchers improve models and make more accurate predictions about future climate changes.
