Yet another new study affirms sea levels were meters higher than today on the Bohai Sea coast during the Mid-Holocene before declining to today’s levels over the last few millennia.
The Earth was less glaciated at this time, or from 9000 to 4000 years ago, meaning there was less water locked up on land as ice. Consequently, there was more water in ocean basins.
Hundreds of other studies have documented meters-higher at locations throughout the world, as documented here.
