The deglaciation of Sweden after 10,000 B.P.
Author:
Abstract
A review is given of the past and present research on the deglaciation of Sweden north of the Middle Swedish End Moraines. Problems concerning the differences in the mode of deglaciation above and below the highest coastline and the activity of the ice are discussed. Dating of the deglaciation offers special problems. The clay‐varve method and radiocarbon dating of the beginning of organic sedimentation in particular are discussed.Keywords
