- Paper Questions Fluctuation
Wednesday, 8 August, 2018
A new paper from PAGES' PALSEA working group questions the occurrence of a rapid sea-level fluctuation within the Last Interglacial.
Authors, led by the group's next phase co-leader Natasha Barlow, synthesize published geomorphological and stratigraphic indicators from the Last Interglacial, and find no evidence for ice-sheet regrowth within the warm interglacial climate.
They also identify uncertainties in the interpretation of local relative sea-level data that underpin the reconstructions of global mean sea level.
