Land-ice decay at the end of the last five ice-ages caused global
sea-levels to rise at rates of up to 5.5 metres per century, according
to a new study.
An international team of researchers developed a 500,000-year record
of sea-level variability, to provide the first account of how quickly
sea-level changed during the last five ice-age cycles.
The results, published in the latest issue of Nature Communications, also found that more than 100 smaller events of sea-level rise took place in between the five major events."
