Attached is an illustration showing the calculated anomalies as compared to the borehole observation. The borehole observation shown with error bar in black is assembled from more than 200 boreholes located in the Northern Hemisphere and logged in the 1990s. Due to various constraints on the borehole data (in particularly, non-climatic noises and the attenuated resolution power toward more remote past), the experiment is focused on the most recent five centuries of the proxy reconstructions. In the calculation the baseline of each reconstruction is respectively set to be its own 1200-1499 mean. The upper panel of the illustration shows the base-line embedded time series used as forcing to drive the Earth. The lower panel shows the resultant subsurface temperature anomalies. ECS is shown in blue and MBH in red. Since I don¡¯t have the original ECS annual series, a 50-year smoothened version kindly provided by Tim Osborn is employed. I hope you would find this comparison interesting. Regards, Shaopeng Attachment Converted: "c:\eudora\attach\bt.pdf"
