Early Holocene sea level rise
ID: early-holocene-sea-level-rise
The Early Holocene sea level rise refers to the significant increase in global sea levels that occurred during the early part of the Holocene epoch, which began around 11,700 years ago and lasted until about 5,000 years ago. At the end of the last Ice Age, melting glaciers and ice sheets contributed to a rapid rise in sea levels as the large volumes of water trapped in ice returned to the oceans.
