Anjuli, I don't have any papers in the works on millennial time series recently. Attaching a large review paper - apologies if I forgot to send you this one. This has lots of recommendations in for what proxy climate research should be doing. As for the millennial time series, the time series of change is pretty robust. There was a paper in Science recently which found much the same thing as many earlier papers - also attached. There is a lot on blog sites especially the right wing ones. My colleague Keith Briffa put this up the other day in response to one of these. http://www.cru.uea.ac.uk/cru/people/briffa/yamal2009/ There is a lot to read here and take in. Bottom line is that the conclusion that recent decades are the warmest of the last millennium is robust. It just takes time to respond to all the rubbish that is out there. Loads of web sites claimed that the Yamal site was used in all the reconstructions. It wasn't - it was used in 3 of 12. There is a Table in the attached which you can get to at one point.
