Sea-level trends across The Bahamas constrain peak last interglacial ice melt

B Dyer, J Austermann, WJ D'Andrea… - Proceedings of the …, 2021 - National Acad Sciences
During the last interglacial (LIG) period, global mean sea level (GMSL) was higher than at
present, likely driven by greater high-latitude insolation. Past sea-level estimates require …

Y Yokoyama, A Purcell - Geoscience Letters, 2021 - Springer
Past sea-level change represents the large-scale state of global climate, reflecting the
waxing and waning of global ice sheets and the corresponding effect on ocean volume …
