Abstract

Updated poster version (actualisations and corrections) of Figure 1 of the Quaternary International 500 article Cohen, K.M. & Gibbard, P.L. 2019 Global chronostratigraphical correlation table for the last 2.7 million years. Quaternary International vol. 500. Fig. 1. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.quaint.2019.03.009.
See abstract and full text of the linked paper for details, research history and citations/references to materials included in the chart: it makes extensive use of published data sets and schemes, all cited in the main text, many of which have data repositories. This 2022 poster version follows up earlier published (Episodes 2008, QI-500, 2019)  and web releases (2009, 2010, 2011, 2016, 2020, 2021). The release of the poster version via data.mendeley.com, cross-referenced from the QI paper, was coordinated with the QI journal management (Elsevier) and editorship (INQUA). The undivided poster version only differs from the 3-page spread figure in the 2019 QI-500 paper in: placement and font size of title and version, placement of logotypes, inclusion of Utrecht University and University of Cambridge logo's on the poster (continued from earlier releases of the chart) and a series of documented actualisations/corrections for 2020, 2021 and 2022. The PDF files contain scaleable vector graphics only and therefore should suit reproductions to mini-poster (A4, A3) and poster size (e.g. A1) formats alike. Before seeking far zoomed in usage of the chart: take notice of the discussion in the QI paper of chosen graphical resolution, versus achievable geological and chronometric correlation accuracy limits.
