AB: This paper investigates the use of new relative sea level (RSL) data from the Antarctic Peninsula to provide constraints for geophysical models of deglaciation. The paper also looks more widely across Antarctica at the (mis)match between rates of post-glacial rebound derived from RSL measurements, GPS measurements and geophysical model predictions. Better-constrained models of ice history are also discussed as possible inputs to future geophysical modeling.
