Geologist Claims Azores Microcontinent Subsided Half Mile During Meltwater Pulse 1B

What was said
"They found these deposits that are now a half a mile below sea level, right? And he says that there was both atmospheric conditions and shallow marine. They're found a half a mile below sea level, present sea level, and indicate substantial subsidence of the island. Plato places the subsidence of Atlantis 11,600 years ago, which is within a few decades of a massive meltwater pulse."
Randall Carlson presented deep drilling evidence from the Azores showing deposits 786 meters below sea level that were once subaerial or shallow marine, requiring 556 meters of subsidence beyond what post-glacial sea level rise accounts for. He argues this precisely matches Plato's date for Atlantis sinking and correlates with Meltwater Pulse 1B at 11,600 years ago, supporting his theory that the Azores microcontinent is the most likely location for Atlantis.
