Sea level change
Sea level change
 Eustatic – global-scale sea level change caused
by a change in the volume of water in the ocean
store
 Isostatic – local-scale sea level change caused by
a change in the level of the land relative to the
level of the sea.
 Emergence – the impact of a relative FALL in sea
level (Marine Regression)
 Submergence – the impact of a RISE in relative
sea level (Marine Transgression)
 A decrease in global temperatures leads to
more precipitation occurring in the form of
snow.
 Eventually this snow turns to ice and so water is
stored on land rather than being returned to
the ocean store.
 Consequently there is a global FALL in sea level.
 If global temperatures subsequently rise,
glaciers retreat and ice melts causing a RISE in
global sea level.
Sea level change
 During a glacial period, the weight of ice in
ice sheets and glaciers adds weight to the
earth’s crust.
 This causes the crust to sink lower into the
mantle rock beneath.
 This results in an apparent rise in the level of
the sea.
 At the end of the glacial period the ice melts
and weight is lost from the crust causing it to
slowly rise. The sea level will then appear to
fall.
 Some places on the east coast of Scotland
are rising at a rate of 7mm a year.

exposed, e.g. Kingsbridge Estuary, Devonexposed, e.g. Kingsbridge Estuary, Devon
 In cross section the ria has relatively shallow
water becoming increasingly deep towards the
centre. The exposed valley sides are quite
gently sloping.
 In long section rias are quite even with a
smooth profile and water of uniform depth.
 In plan view they tend to be winding,
reflecting the original route of the river and
its valley.
Fjords are submerged glacial valleys. They have steep,Fjords are submerged glacial valleys. They have steep,
cliff-like valley sides and the water is uniformly deepcliff-like valley sides and the water is uniformly deep
(often 1000m in depth). These were formed when glaciers(often 1000m in depth). These were formed when glaciers
eroded below sea-level. When the ice melted the valleyseroded below sea-level. When the ice melted the valleys
were flooded, e.g. Milford Sound fjord, New Zealandwere flooded, e.g. Milford Sound fjord, New Zealand
 The u-shaped cross-section reflects the
original shape of the glacial valley.
 Unlike rias, fjords are not deepest at their
mouths, but have a shallow section at the
seaward end known as the threshold.
 Fjords have much straighter routes, due to
the erosive power of the glacier.
