PAGES session

PALSEA: Session T154. Sea-Level Indicators: New Interpretations and Constraints for Future Projections
Leaders: Deirdre D. Ryan, Nicole S. Khan, and Daniel M. Gilford

Well-constrained sea-level indicators are critical to understand past, present, and future global and regional sea-level variability. This session showcases state-of-the-art methods describing and constraining sea-level indicators, and their value for improving sea-level modeling and projections.

This session is endorsed by PALSEA, HOLSEA, WARMCOASTS, and GSA divisions for Marine and Coastal Geoscience, Quaternary Geology and Geomorphology, and Sedimentary Geology.
