Abstract:
The Fennoscandian land uplift phenomenon has been studied using geodetic, gravimetric and seismologic material. Results obtained show that the greatest part of the phenomenon is of glaciological origin. In the geoid there is a depression approx. eight meters in depth. A seismic map showing data gathered over 500 years shows also a certain tectonic pattern.
