I don't know what the source of this graphic is (and I would appreciate knowing...it's a good graphic). I scrolled through all 220 replies to this thread and didn't see it. I can only guess that this refers to a global average of sea level, and doesn't take into account local effects of tectonism, glacial forebulge, etc.

From my post HERE. Checking the "properties" on the graphic indicates it came from the University of Arizona geosciences dept library.

There has been considerable uplift, relative to global average sea level, just in the last 30,000 years, in my area of Southern Maryland, for example (if you remind me during the work week next week, I'll send you some information on this if you are interested).

Actually you have already covered this in your post #201. I even acknowledged finding another source reaching similar results in my searches I had since forgotten. Gettin' old is a B!TCH? So, the uplift of ~120' in the area would just about square with the approximate sea level at the time.

Your post #177 doesn't have a graphic in it.
