Figure 1: This depicts the span of how long each proxy record can pretty accurately predict the climate, so for example ocean sediments can tell millions of years into the past with good accuracy. It is also important to note that the thicker the most data is collected from. It is a good chart to get an idea of which records are good for which length of time since we have only had instrumental records for so long, and have collected data for shorter.
