Summary
Glacial Rebound
, also known as
Isostatic Rebound
, is the
Rise of land masses
that were
Depressed by the huge weight of ice sheets
during the
Last glacial period
, resulting in an
Ongoing land uplift
as the ice continues to melt. This
Geological process
can lead to significant
Changes in sea level
and
Landscape configuration
,
Impacting natural habitats
and
Human infrastructure
along
Coastal Regions
.
