Could the alluvial deposits that the BGS record be the evidence/remains of what was washed there by the Storegga Slide tsunami that destroyed Doggerland? or other similar events?

As I understand it, sea levels won't rise due to the melting of sea ice but they would surely rise with the melting of ice on land once that water reaches the sea?
I have also read that a lot of water was released into the Atlantic from a huge inland sea in north America.
Added to that, the weight of ice in northern Britain is supposed to have led to the raising of the coastline of southern England. Once that weight was gone, the northern lands raised up and southern Britain sank lower.
