“…Sea-level changes during TII are characterized by two phases of rising sea level, with an intervening sea-level drop, known as a "sealevel reversal" (Esat et al, 1999;Gallup et al, 2002;Thompson and Goldstein, 2005;Siddall et al, 2006;Andrews et al, 2007). However, there is still debate about the timing and magnitude of the first and second steps of sea-level rise and the intervening sea-level drop.…”

“…122 ka, a duration of approximately 7.6 ka. The transition from the penultimate glacial into the last interglacial is marked by large oscillations in sea level (Thompson and Goldstein, 2005;Andrews et al, 2007;Rohling et al, 2008), which could have destabilised a BIS marine calving margin at this time. However, no obvious two-stage deglaciation, analogous Imbrie et al, 1984).…”

Ice Sheet dynamics inferred from North Atlantic ice-rafted debris records spanning the last 175 000 years.ABSTRACT: Sediment core MD04-2822 from the Rockall Trough, northeast Atlantic, provides lithological evidence for the expansion of the British Ice Sheet (BIS) onto the Hebridean margin during both the penultimate (Marine Isotope Stage (MIS) 6/Wolstonian/Saalian) and last glaciation (Devensian/Weichselian). A composite chronology is constructed using: (i) the benthic foraminiferal oxygen isotope record, matched to an orbitally tuned stacked record of global ice volume (SPECMAP); (ii) the synchronisation of the planktonic foraminiferal (Neogloboquadrina pachyderma (sinistral)) and ITRAX XRF Ca records to the Greenland ice core (NGRIP) back to ca. 123 ka; and (iii) the synchronisation of the same N. pachyderma (sinistral)) and ITRAX XRF Ca records to the atmospheric methane record of the Antarctic ice core (EPICA Dome C) beyond 123 ka. The first offshore evidence for the expansion of the last BIS within MIS 4 is presented, suggesting extensive glaciation of northwestern Britain during the Devensian/Weichselian as early as 70 ka. The proximity of this long sediment core to the glaciated margin of northwestern Scotland makes it ideal to capture the ice-rafted debris (IRD) signal of the BIS for the last 175 ka, via a continuous flux record of IRD.

“…Millennial scale sea-level fluctuations have been recorded through MIS Se interglacial (e.g. White et al, 1995;Andrews et al, 2007;Hearty et al, 2007). Rapid ice melting and ice build up have been invoked as the main cause for such rapid sea level variability.…”

“…Rapid ice melting and ice build up have been invoked as the main cause for such rapid sea level variability. However, contribution from different driving mechanism such as: solar vari ability, a weakened or southward displaced North-Atlantic current, and the relative importance of northern and southern hemispheres ice growth and decay remain under debate (Andrews et al, 2007).…”
