The data are unique in that this is the first continuous sea-level curve obtained offshore from a former glacial ice margin. The sea-level data indicate a uniform rate of relative rise over the past 7,000 yr offshore, contrasting sharply with onshore data that show a marked reduction in the rate of rise from 2,500 yr ago to present. These observations appear to confirm recent theoretical models that suggest that sea-level changes along former ice margins can be divided into zones depending on the distance from the former ice center.
