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

On the geophysical processes impacting palaeo-sea-level observations
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 …

The impact of 3-D Earth structure on far-field sea level following interglacial West Antarctic Ice Sheet collapse
Prior to inferring ice sheet stability from past interglacial sea-level records, these records
must first be corrected for the contaminating effects of glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA) …

Constraining the contribution of the Antarctic Ice Sheet to Last Interglacial sea level
Polar temperatures during the Last Interglacial [LIG;~ 129 to 116 thousand years (ka)] were
warmer than today, making this time period an important testing ground to better understand …

Asynchronous Antarctic and Greenland ice-volume contributions to the last interglacial sea-level highstand
Abstract The last interglacial (LIG;~ 130 to~ 118 thousand years ago, ka) was the last time
global sea level rose well above the present level. Greenland Ice Sheet (GrIS) contributions …

Could the last interglacial constrain projections of future Antarctic ice mass loss and sea‐level rise?
Previous studies have interpreted Last Interglacial (LIG;∼ 129–116 ka) sea‐level estimates
in multiple different ways to calibrate projections of future Antarctic ice‐sheet (AIS) mass loss …

Multiple episodes of ice loss from the Wilkes Subglacial Basin during the Last Interglacial
Abstract The Last Interglacial (LIG: 130,000–115,000 years ago) was a period of warmer
global mean temperatures and higher and more variable sea levels than the Holocene …
