I'm noting that they used the much more recent interglacial than the more recent article I pinged you to.
I'm also noting a bit of squishiness in this, too.
Now an international research team has discovered that during the warm period following the next-to-last ice age, when global temperatures reached at least 2°C above the current average, the seas rose by as much as 6 meters over just a few hundred years.
They're not saying anything about when this occured within the warming cycle; nor for how long that rise rate continued. They are also not mentioning what final level they ultimately rose to, compared to current sea levels.
IIRC, the maximum sea levels, when the temps were 2C above our current "global average temperature", were only 8" (<20cm) higher than current sea levels.
