	year = {2015},
	note = {When the glaciers melted at the end of the last ice age, sea levels along the Pacific Coast of North America did not rise uniformly.  Areas where the earth had been pressed down by the weight of glaciers saw relatively little sea level rise, as the land rebounded when the weight was removed.  Sites further away from the great glaciers saw higher sea levels.  In this paper, the authors describe a database of sea levels and reference points for the last 16,000 years in our area.  Appendices give reference points, descriptions, and referenced publications.  Interestingly, Alsea Bay in Appendix 1 is spelled {\textquotedblleft}Alsey Bay.{\textquotedblright}},
