Comparing different calibration methods (WA/WA-PLS regression and Bayesian modelling) and different-sized calibration sets in pollen-based quantitative climate reconstruction

Abstract: We compare a Bayesian modelling-based technique with weighted averaging (WA) and weighted averaging-partial least squares (WA-PLS) regression in pollen-based summer temperature transfer function calibration. We test the methods using a new, 113-sample calibration set from Estonia, Lithuania and European Russia, and a Holocene fossil pollen sequence from Lake Kharinei, a previously studied lake in northeast European Russia. We find WA-PLS to outperform WA, probably because of smaller edge-effect biases in the e… Show more

“…The calibration of the WA transfer functions was based on previously published calibration datasets on lake surface sediment pollen and chironomid assemblages: for pollen, the "central" calibration dataset used in Salonen et al (2013) (for further details about these samples see Sepp€ a et al, 2004;Bjune et al, 2010;Salonen et al, 2012), and for chironomids, the Norwegian calibration dataset described in Brooks and Birks (2001) and Self et al (2011). The performance of the transfer functions was tested using leave-one-out cross-validation, suggesting a rootmean-square error of prediction (RMSEP) of 0.86 C for the pollenbased inference model and 1.03 C for the chironomid-based inference model.…”
