Abstract:
Definitive data for late Quaternary sea levels in the Gulf of Mexico largely were gathered more than 15 years ago, and primarily were based on the presence of submerged shoreline depositional features. During the last 3 years new evidence has been gathered from wave-cut terraces and erosional unconformities present on submerged banks near the edge of the northern Gulf continental shelf. At least 9 distinct levels can be recognized between 20 and 200 m, and there are many additional minor ones.
