Description

This dataset is a compilation of published last interglacial sea level indicators for the southeast coast of South America (including Uruguay, Argentina, and one site in southern Chile). We have documented 60 proxies, which includes 48 sea level index points, 11 marine limiting indicators and 1 terrestrial limiting indicator. All of these data have at least some chronological control, with radiocarbon, electron spin resonance, U/Th, amino acid racemization and OSL dating techniques. The vertical uncertainty values were assigned based on information given for measurements, and the type of deposit.
