SPECMAP is the standard chronology for oxygen isotope records. This high resolution chronology was derived from several isotopic records, the composite curve was then smoothed, filtered and tuned to the known cycles of the astronomical variables.

The use of a number of isotopic profiles was designed to eliminate 'noise' errors, that could have been contained within a single isotopic record.
