Short summary
Palaeoecology provides crucial information into past changes in climate and ecosystems. However, uncertainties from environmental processes and laboratory methods affect our inferences from the data. We use a virtual ecological approach to quantifying uncertainties by simulating proxy data and systematically introducing sources of uncertainty. Better understanding the effects of uncertainty can help shape study designs before a project is carried out and make robust inferences palaeoproxy data.
