Precise relativesealevel (RSL) data are important for inferring regional ice sheet histories, as well as helping to validate numerical models of ice sheet evolution and glacial isostatic adjustment. Here we develop anew RSL curve for Fildes Peninsula, SouthShetlandIslands (SSIs), a sub-Antarctic arc...
