17 (2): Understanding sea level: Ways forward from the past
This special edition of PAGES news led by the PALSEA (PALeo SEA level) Working Group covers recent advances in the field of paleo sea level and ice sheet reconstruction. The focus is on the application of this data to a better understanding of contemporary and future sea level and ice sheet change, as well as directions for future research.
