Extended Data Fig. 3: Mean background subsidence rate (m/kyr) over the last 1.8 Ma for the North Sea Basin.
From: Global sea-level rise in the early Holocene revealed from North Sea peats

The subsidence rates and associated spatial pattern are not related to GIA processes. Instead, they are a cumulative result of tectonics, compaction and sediment loading. Numbered red dots refer to sample identifiers in the database of sea-level indicators (SI Section 1). Blue squares denote the supplemented Rotterdam data cluster.
