Scientists found that sea levels rose rapidly 11,700 years ago due to melting ice sheets and sudden lake drainage.

A new study published in Nature provides key insights into sea level rise after the last ice age, around 11,700 years ago. Using data from the North Sea region, researchers found that sea levels rose ...

The new knowledge of the rate of sea level rise during the early Holocene offers an important point of reference for scientists and policymakers, especially as we are now faced with a similar ...

Now, new geological data show that sea levels rose about 125 feet (38 meters) between 11,000 and 3,000 years ago, according ...

New research provides precise estimates, offering the first glimpse into sea level rise during the early Holocene. Read the ...

New research on historical sea-level rise will give scientists new knowledge into how global warming will affect the earth’s ...

An important difference with the early Holocene is that the consequences of sea level rise are far greater today and in the future. This is due to a growth in population and the current presence ...

Arête Glacier Initiative has raised $5 million to improve forecasts of sea-level rise and explore the possibility of ...

Unseen mountains, valleys, lakes, and rivers lie under Antarctica’s mile-thick ice sheet. Changes to those hidden rivers ...

our past emissions commit us to ongoing sea-level rise, given the long-drawn-out impact of climate warming on the oceans and ...

This boosted sea level rise a bit above current annual expectations, to nearly a quarter inch. (Rising surface temperatures are part of another clear trend: The last 10 consecutive years have been ...

Rahmsdorf et al. 1 compare observations of global temperature and sea level rise with predictions (conditional on appropriate emissions scenarios) made by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate ...
