Coral, as an indicator of past environments, is especially useful in determining past sea levels. Some types of corals, such as brain coral, must live close to the surface. As the sea level rises with the melting of the ice sheets, the corals must grow upward to survive. If the age of the corals can be determined, the past rate of sea level rise can be estimated. As the ice sheets melted rapidly during the latest ice age, sea levels rose at a rate of 8 feet in 100 years. Page 6, U.S. Geological Survey Circular 1085.
