A global database of marine isotope substage 5a and 5c marine terraces and paleoshoreline indicatorsAbstract. In this review we compile and document the elevation, indicative meaning, and chronology of marine isotope substage 5a and 5c sea level indicatorsfor 39 sites within three geographic regions: the North American Pacific coast, the North American Atlantic coast and the Caribbean, and theremaining globe. These relative sea level indicators, comprised of geomorphic indicators such as marine and coral reef terraces, eolianites, andsedimentary marine- and terrestrial-limiting facies, facilitate future investigation into marine isotope substage 5a and 5c interstadial paleo-sealevel reconstruction, glacial isostatic adjustment, and Quaternary tectonic deformation. The open-access database, presented in the format of theWorld Atlas of Last Interglacial Shorelines (WALIS) database, can be found at https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.5021306 (Thompson and Creveling, 2021).more » « less
