Short summary
Usefully combining models and data to learn about past climates relies in part on translating observed paleoclimate quantities into the discrete time and space of climate models. This work addresses errors that can arise in translation when time offsets, smoothing, or averaging is different in data and models. These errors depend on sampling timescales, which are important to report in proxy metadata, and can be large relative to the climate signals of interest.
