Meltwater Pulse 1B refers to a significant rise in global sea levels that occurred approximately 14,600 to 12,700 years ago during the late Pleistocene epoch. It is part of a broader phenomenon known as the Meltwater Pulses, which are characterized by rapid increases in sea levels caused by the melting of ice sheets and glaciers at the end of the last Ice Age.
