During this phase, the sheer volume of water sequestered in the ice mass resulted in a dramatic global sea level lowering (/entries/global-sea-level-lowering/). The LIS alone is implicated in lowering global sea levels (/entries/global-sea-levels/) by approximately $90$ to $100$ meters relative to the present day, contributing significantly to the combined $\sim 120$ to $135$ meter drawdown attributed to all cont…
