Изменение уровня Мирового океана в четвертичное время на различных широтах

Аннотация

The World Ocean level fluctuates incessantly under the influence of both hydro- and geocratic factors. Studies of the Holocene coastlines position as well as modeling experiments indicate that the Ocean level rise due to melting of the Pleistocene ice sheets was different in various parts of the Ocean. The post-glacial transgression is supposed to have reached its maximum about 5 to 6 key BP. A latitudinal analysis of the Ocean level changes during the last 6 thousand years provides evidences of symmetrical changes of the water surface with respect to the equator. The observations bring us to a conclusion that the Ocean level changes are influenced by variations of the EaM rotation rate and by the position of its axis.
