...However, the global sea level changes seen in the latter half of the Quaternary Period are undoubtedly movements caused by changes in seawater volume, that is, increases and decreases in seawater volume due to the rise and fall of glaciers on Earth. Such sea level changes controlled by the rise and fall of glaciers are called glacial eustasy. If all the glaciers currently covering the land were to melt, the meltwater would return to the ocean, and it is estimated that sea levels would rise by about 50 to 85 meters. *Some of the terminology that mentions "glacial eustasy" is listed below.

…しかし第四紀の後半にみられる汎世界的な海水面の変化は,まぎれもなく海水量の変化,すなわち地球上の氷河の消長による海水量の増減に基因した運動である。このように氷河の消長に規制された海水面の変化を氷河性海水面変化glacial eustasyという。 現在の陸地をおおう氷河が全部融けたとすれば,その融水が海にもどって,海水面は50~85mほど上昇すると見積もられている。… ※「glacial eustasy」について言及している用語解説の一部を掲載しています。 出典|株式会社平凡社世界大百科事典 第2版について | 情報 |
