Abstract

FIG. 3. — Precipitation reconstructions for the Kenslow Member showing the mean value (black line) and 50% uncertainty intervals (coloured portions). The average values for the entire sections are: MAP = 1179 mm/yr; Summer Precipitation = 369 mm; Winter Precipitation = 220 mm. Note that the mean value lies towards the upper 50% uncertainty interval (and above for Winter precipitation) as the probability density curves are skewed towards higher precipitation (long tails to the curves towards lower precipitation caused by family-level nearest living relative assignments).
