Why does sea level rise and fall during interglacial and glacial periods?
During glacial periods, sea levels drop because water is stored in continental ice sheets. During interglacial periods, ice melts and sea levels rise as water is released back into the oceans. These fluctuations in sea level are part of the Earth's natural climate cycles.
Why did the sea level rise after the ice age?
In ice age it was so cold that water froze and turned into ice. So when the temperature started to get warm the ice began to melt into equally the same water the ice was before. So all the water from rivers, lakes, etc flowed into the seas and made the sea level rise.
During an ice age earths sea level?
During an ice age, Earth's sea level generally drops because water is locked up in the polar ice caps and glaciers. This causes less water to be in the oceans, leading to lower sea levels compared to during interglacial periods.
When the glaciers that covered large parts of Earth melted after the last ice age did the the sea levels become higher?
Yes, as the glaciers melted after the last ice age, the water flowed into the oceans, causing sea levels to rise. This phenomenon is known as post-glacial sea level rise and it has led to changes in coastlines and the flooding of low-lying areas.
Is it true that during the ice age the ocean level was much higher than it is today?
No, during the ice age the ocean levels were actually lower than they are today. This is because a significant amount of water was locked up in glaciers and ice sheets on land, leading to lower sea levels.
Why does sea level rise and fall during interglacial and glacial periods?
During glacial periods, sea levels drop because water is stored in continental ice sheets. During interglacial periods, ice melts and sea levels rise as water is released back into the oceans. These fluctuations in sea level are part of the Earth's natural climate cycles.

Did the breakup of Pangaea cause the sea level to rise?
Yes, according to my professor: "The sea-floor subsides as it cools, the amount depending on the time the lithosphere has had to cool and thicken. This means that the volume of the ocean basins increases with the mean age of the ocean floor, and that sea level tends to decrease in consequence with the mean age of the ocean floor (because the same amount of sea water sits lower relative to continents). When sea floor production speeds up, as when the midocean ridge system lengthens during a supercontinent's breakup, sea level tends to rise. When sea floor production slows down, as when the midocean ridge system shortens during a supercontinent's assembly, sea level tends to fall. Thus sea level tends to rise during a supercontinent's breakup.

What happens to oceans levels during an ice age?
Sea level can drop on the order of 100 meters. During the last glacial maximum, when the last ice age was in full swing and continental ice masses variously reached their greatest extents, considered to be the millennia centered about 21,000 calendar years ago, sea level reached 120 meters (~400 feet) lower than recent eustatic mean sea level, opening up nearly the same amount of formerly submerged land in habitable areas as was lost to ice cover and permafrost during the last ice age.

Which development laid the foundation for the rise of the free enterprise system in Europe during the late middle age?
the decline of agricultural economies
What was the rise of Vernacular language during the age of Enlightenment?
During the Age of Enlightenment, there was a rise in the use of vernacular languages for literature, philosophy, and scientific discussions. This shift allowed for ideas to reach a wider audience beyond the educated elite who primarily communicated in Latin. It helped foster the spread of knowledge and democratize access to information and ideas.
