Glacial-isostatic adjustment and sea-level change near Berkner Island, Antarctica
The objective of this study is to calculate the RSL height at the location of theBerkner Island ice core during the last glacial cycle using a viscoelastic earth model andseveral glacial histories. Earlier glacial cycles are not considered, the basic assumptionbeing that the sediments were deposited...
