A global spatially explicit database of changes in island paleo-area and archipelago configuration during the late Quaternary
Motivation: Past sea level fluctuations have shaped island area and archipelago configuration. The availability of global high‐resolution data on bathymetry and past sea levels allows reconstruction of island palaeo‐geography. Studies on the role of palaeo‐area often consider only the Last Glacial M...

Motivation: Past sea level fluctuations have shaped island area and archipelago configuration. The availability of global high‐resolution data on bathymetry and past sea levels allows reconstruction of island palaeo‐geography. Studies on the role of palaeo‐area often consider only the Last Glacial Maximum, which neglects the dynamics of island fusion and fission resulting from cyclic sea level fluctuations throughout the Quaternary. Currently, no global database is available to test the role of changing island geographies driven by Quaternary sea level change on evolutionary, ecological and archaeological patterns. However, data on island palaeo‐environments is crucial for understanding insular biodiversity distributions and human settlement patterns. Here, we present the Palaeo‐Islands and Archipelago Configuration (PIAC) database, containing sea level‐driven palaeo‐geography changes over the late Quaternary of 178 islands in 27 archipelagos, and discuss its relevance, limitations and uncertainties. The R functions developed to create the PIAC database are provided to allow calculations for other islands, time steps, sea‐level curves and higher spatio‐temporal resolutions.
