本文概述了末次盛冰期(LGM)冰盖和海平面的一般问题,这些问题构成了EPILOG项目研讨会的基础。本期《第四纪科学评论》特刊的论文从冰盖范围的地质重建、海平面变化记录、冰盖模拟、冰川均衡调整的地球物理模型和冰量的地球化学代理等方面对这些问题进行了全面的评价。这一新的评估大大缩小了冰盖和海平面及其代用物总变化的不确定性,表明LGM的海平面上升净下降幅度在120至135米之间。2001爱思唯尔科学有限公司版权所有。
This paper outlines the general issues regarding ice sheets and sea level of the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM), which formed the basis of an EPILOG Project workshop. Papers in this special issue of Quaternary Science Reviews provide a comprehensive assessment of these issues From the perspective of geological reconstructions of ice sheet extent, records of sea-level change, ice sheet modelling, geophysical models of glacial isostatic adjustment, and geochemical proxies of ice volume. This new assessment has substantially narrowed the uncertainties in the total changes in ice sheets and sea level and their proxies, suggesting a net decrease in eustatic sea level at the LGM ranging from 120 to 135 m.
