Summary High-magnitude, high-frequency 'glacio-eustatic cyclicity' may be a valid concept for times of continental glaciations, but what about times when such glaciation was absent from Earth? Why do cycle charts have a similar form and style for time periods with and without glaciation? Have we missed the identification of a fundamental driving cause as important as glaciation and which might have operated during non-glacial times, or, are we confusing local and eustatic drivers of relative sea-level change? The papers in this book collectively address these questions.
