Here's a map of the world with the ocean levels reduced by 110 meters (about 360 feet, I think). Some very interesting views.

I've seen some estimates that say the world's oceans were lowered during the Ice Age by as much as 500 feet.

Thanks - I've been looking all over for that....

OMG, fascinating map!

I see that Bimini has become part of Andros.

The Gulf Stream off the east coast of FL looks much the same, but the grouper flats off the west coast are dry...now to look around at more places that I'm familiar with.

Thanks.

Here's a site you may find interesting..

There's a link about halfway down the page that is titled " A Quick Background to the Last Ice Age " which deals with the climatic conditions prevailing in various time periods leading to the present...
It gives a good background on what sort of living conditions ancient man had to endure, and some insights into climatic changes and cycles that hint at good times among the bad..

I found it interesting that during the last 17,000 years or so, there have been several warm and cold periods, wet and dry periods, etc..
Change of climate could on occasion occur over a period of less than 100 years...

Imagine listening to your grandfather complain about how bad he had it as a kid, when it was really cold and dry, and everywhere one went was always uphill..

Oh.. Also a little lower down is a link to an article about a siberian glacial mega lake.. Much like Lake Agassi here in the northern midwest..
Given the time period, such flooding could drive some people to emigrate to relatively "safer" territory in the "new world"..
