From: Global sea-level rise in the early Holocene revealed from North Sea peats

Fig. 4

a, Rates of North Sea residual RSL change for 11–3 ka (data in49), in relation to rates of GMSL change during the past 2 kyr (ref. 50) and expected for the next century5. b, North Sea residual RSL for 11–3 ka and the derived GMSL curve (dashed grey line) after accounting for regional NAISC–AIS sea-level fingerprint (this study). Also shown is GMSL during the past 2 kyr (ref. 51) and expected for the next century5. The inset axis shows our reconstructed8,12,46,47,48 GMSL contributions in metres SLE from three main ice-mass centres (NAISC, AIS and EuIS) with their mean value and 2σ range.
