  abstract = {{P}ast sea-level records provide invaluable information about the response of ice sheets to climate forcing. {S}ome such records suggest that the last deglaciation was punctuated by a dramatic period of sea-level rise, of about 20 metres, in less than 500 years. {C}ontroversy about the amplitude and timing of this meltwater pulse ({MWP}-1{A}) has, however, led to uncertainty about the source of the melt water and its temporal and causal relationships with the abrupt climate changes of the deglaciation. {H}ere we show that {MWP}-1{A} started no earlier than 14,650 years ago and ended before 14,310 years ago, making it coeval with the {B}olling warming. {O}ur results, based on corals drilled offshore from {T}ahiti during {I}ntegrated {O}cean {D}rilling {P}roject {E}xpedition 310, reveal that the increase in sea level at {T}ahiti was between 12 and 22 metres, with a most probable value between 14 and 18 metres, establishing a significant meltwater contribution from the {S}outhern {H}emisphere. {T}his implies that the rate of eustatic sea-level rise exceeded 40 millimetres per year during {MWP}-1{A}.},
