Mid and Late Holocene sea level variations in the Canary Islands

Fuerteventura has been vertically stable since the last interglacial period, and the sedimentology of the deposits precludes an origin from tsunamis or storms. This island is in a far-field region in terms of glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA) processes. Here, we suggest that the deposits may be related to GIA and ice mass losses effects in the Southern Hemisphere.
