A consistent map of the postglacial uplift of Fennoscandia

ABSTRACT A consistent map of the recent postglacial rebound of Fennoscandia is constructed on the basis of sea‐level records, lake‐level records and repeated high‐precision levellings. The uplift rates calculated from the sea‐level series form a consistent framework of the map. The sea‐level stations used are 56 reliable stations in the Baltic Sea and adjacent waters with series spanning 60 years or more, many of them about 100 years. Using a reference station in the Baltic Sea and another one outside the Baltic, all results are reduced to a common time span, the 100‐year‐period 1892–1991, in order to eliminate oceanographic changes. Inland, uplift differences are obtained from the repeated national levellings and, in four of the large lakes, from long water …
