I t is suggested that a decrease in graptoloid diversity in the utilis Subzone (early Telychian) resulted from a eustatic fall in sea level induced by the spread of ice sheets from the highlands of central Gondwanaland. Major extinctions occurred within the retiolites and the genera Glyptograptus, P

## Abstract Analysis of more than 1200 radiocarbon dated samples that constrain relative seaβlevels in Great Britain over the past 16 000 yr provides estimates of current landβlevel changes (negative of relative seaβlevel change). Maximum relative land uplift occurs in central and western Scotland,
## Abstract New archaeological and geomorphologic data collected adjacent to the Aral Sea show lakeβlevel stands during the late Pleistocene and the past 5000 years. On the northern and southern shores, archaeological sites from the Palaeolithic through the Late Middle Ages contain evidence of vari
Northumberland lies in the transition between Holocene emergence and submergence and is thus a critical zone for testing models of isostatic rebound. We have collected data from this area to reconstruct relative sea-level changes and lateral coastline movements for the last 14000 y. These are deposi
