|a Sea level reconstructions spanning the late Holocene (the past 2000 years) provide a preindustrial context for understanding the patterns and causes of contemporary and
future change. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) assumed that global sea level change during the past two millennia (prior to the middle of the nineteenth
century) was close to zero [Bindoff et al., 2007], but understanding of late Holocene sea level variability is limited. Glaciers and ice sheets changed significantly in size during this period, and therefore sea level likely oscillated on the order of several decimeters. In addition, ocean dynamics, solid Earth movements, steric (density) changes, and gravitational effects contributed to complex regional patterns of sea level change. Unraveling this regional variability and determining the various contributing sources to past global sea level change will help to improve contemporary understanding and future predictions of sea level change and ice-ocean mass flux. Thus, a close look at the past 2000 years of sea level history may help reveal useful lessons for improving future sea level predictions. |
