where would the shoreline be after rapid melting of the Antarctic ice sheets?

Considering the shoreline (sea level) as it is today, where would the shoreline be after quick melting of the ice sheets? They would rise immediately, but what about in more time?


Specifically, in 1,000 years, would sea levels rise, fall, or stay the same from where they are today after the rapid melting of the ice sheets. What about 1,000,000 years after melting, would they rise or fall from from today? why?
