Comparison of the marine oxygen isotope record, the eustatic sea level record, and the chronology of glaciation in the United States of America in Quaternary glaciations in the Northern Hemisphere.
Ob evstaticeskih kolebanijah urovnja okeana i ih prognozirovanii. (On the eustatic fluctuations of the ocean level and their forecasting)
Modern eustatic fluctuations of the ocean level and long-term changes of world water budget components are considered. Possible mechanisms of anthropogenic changes of the level in the future are discussed. An assumption is made on the atmospheric
feeding of the Antarctic ice sheet as a basic factor of eustatic changes of the ocean level during the nearest several decades. Versions of simple statistical forecasting the eustatic fluctuations of the ocean level are presented. (L'Ed.).
This report cannot attempt to review all that has been written on sea level in the last one or two years. Instead, it examines the extent to which it has been possible to reconstruct or explain the past pattern of truly global (eustatic) sea-level
Hominid migrations and the eustatic sea level paradigm: a critique in Quaternary coastlines and marine archaeology: Towards the prehistory of land bridges and continental shelves.
A computer-assisted analysis of 3,700 radiocarbon dates related to sea level shows that the shape of the earth has changed significantly through time. The lack of a stable datum prevents to measure absolute eustatic fluctuations. (P. A. Pirazzoli).
Carbonate platforms bordering the Tethyan margins carry a distinct periodic signal that can be related to Jurassic-Cretaceous climate and eustatism. They yield a rich archive of information, including the tectonics affecting the platforms
Alte Meeresstände an Küsten des Atlantischen Typs und die Meeresspiegelkurve seit dem Oberen Miozän. (Ancient sea levels on coasts of Atlantic type, and the amplitudes of eustatic movements since upper Miocene)
to be in harmony with the eustatic rhythm which would seem to indicate a prevalence of eustatic causes over climatic changes and orogenic or isostatic crustal movements.
It is shown that there is a good relation between periods of warm climate and rise of sea-level. However, the quantitative relationship is not fully established. In areas with land uplift such as Scandinavia and Finland the eustatic transgressions
Acoustic facies and seabed features of the mixed carbonate-siliciclastic deposits of the last eustatic cycle in the La Maddalena Archipelago (North Sardinia, Italy)
A high-resolution Chirp acoustic survey of 250 nautical miles performed in the La Maddalena Archipelago provided a scheme of the acoustic facies of the recentmost sediments and a frame of the large-scale bedforms linked to the last eustatic cycle
Late Quaternary buried lagoons in the northern Campania plain (southern Italy) : evolution of a coastal system under the influence of volcano-tectonics and eustatism
Marine terrace flights resulting from the interaction of Quaternary glacio-eustatic fluctuations and tectonic uplift are a typical feature of the Tyrrhenian coast of Calabria in Southern Italy; in particular a terrace flight with four orders

The strontium isotopic compositions of foraminifers were determined to refine the age of coastal sediments of the Merced Formation and to evaluate the relation between transgressive-regressive cycles and Pleistocene glacio-eustatic sea-level
This paper discusses the effects of and relations between mass redistribution, energy redistribution and changes in angular momentum. Glacial mass redistributions and glacial eustatic changes in sea level affects the Earth's rate of rotation

This paper presents onshore evidence of delayed crustal uplift during deglaciation from eastern Massachusetts into southwestern Maine and the nature of eustatic sea-level changes during the early part of deglaciation.
The sea level changes recorded are the endproduct of a complex interaction of different variables. The Holocene records give evidence of a general glacial eustatic rise, at least, up to 6000 BP, differential crustal movements and geoidal eustatic
of an absolute basis makes hazardous, at present, any precise determination of eustatic sea levels since 2000 B.P. Possible eustatic fluctuations seem not to have exceeded decimetric order.
The old theory of eustasy implied that the eustatic ocean level was displaced up and down simultaneously and equally over the globe. Due to the geoid deformation, however, two eustatic levels are never quite parallel. The present paper deals
