Exploration of sea level changes over the last 1,000,000 years through research and data, including the post-glacial maximum sea level, exposed continental shelf during the last ice age, and rising sea level as ice caps melted. The analyses provide insights into the dynamics of sea level fluctuations and their impacts on coastal areas.
