Abstract: Paper discusses Holocene sea levels around Ireland. It is noted that relative sea-level signatures in Ireland differ markedly between the north and south coasts. Furthermore, geomorphological and ecological contexts of this rise vary from east to west, providing a complex all Ireland framework for future investigations.
