Description

Several tests of quantitative palaeoenvironmental reconstructions from microfossil assemblages, including the null model tests of the statistically significant of reconstructions developed by Telford and Birks (2011) <doi:10.1016/j.quascirev.2011.03.002>, and tests of the effect of spatial autocorrelation on transfer function model performance using methods from Telford and Birks (2009) <doi:10.1016/j.quascirev.2008.12.020> and Trachsel and Telford (2016) <doi:10.5194/cp-12-1215-2016>. Age-depth models with generalized mixed-effect regression from Heegaard et al (2005) <doi:10.1191/0959683605hl836rr> are also included.
