Original Note:
The "hottest in 120,000 years" claim is the result from a doctoral dissertation from Stanford University, by Carolyn Snyder, now a climate policy official at the US EPA. Synder used data such as such as ratios between magnesium and calcium, species makeup and acidity. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/earth-warmest-in-120000-years-climate-change-study/
