Tectonic and seismic events are well-documented to cause rapid coseismic uplift, which can elevate portions of the ocean floor above sea level to form coastal and marine terraces.
The claim is specific, empirical, and directly addressed by multiple retrieved papers demonstrating that earthquakes and tectonic processes produce rapid uplift of coastal areas and marine terraces (e.g., papers 0, 1, 2, and 8). There are no refuting papers.
