In conjunction with the extensive archaeological projects conducted at the current outlet of Sweden’s second largest lake, Lake Vättern, macrofossil, pollen and diatom records have been studied from 14C-dated lake and river sediments from River Motala ...

Abstract. Lake Ladoga has been experiencing frequent water-level fluctuations during the Holocene. Plenty surveys about reconstructions of lake level were published during the last century. They focused on the onshore transgressive sediments and landforms, while a regression below present level was only an assumption.

Ice conditions in coastal lakes of the southern Baltic Sea [PDF]
This paper describes spatio-temporal variability of the basic ice condition parameters, relationships between selected lakes in terms of those parameters, and frequency of fast (ice cover) and floating ice. Attention is also paid to morphology and topography of ice cover in lakes Jamno, Bukowo, Gardno, and Lebsko during 1960/61-1999/2000. Based on data

Reconstructing dynamics of the Baltic Ice Stream Complex during deglaciation of the Last Scandinavian Ice Sheet [PDF]
Landforms left behind by the last Scandinavian Ice Sheet (SIS) offer an opportunity to investigate controls governing ice sheet dynamics. Terrestrial sectors of the ice sheet have received considerable attention from landform and stratigraphic ...

Mid-Holocene reinforcement of North Atlantic atmospheric circulation variability from a western Baltic lake sediment record [PDF]
Knowledge about the timing, amplitude and spatial gradients of Holocene environmental variability in the circum-Baltic region is key to understanding its responses to ongoing climate change.

Ice bottom evolution derived from thermistor string-based ice mass balance buoy observations
Digital information on sea ice extent, thickness, volume, and distribution is crucial for understanding Earth's climate system. The Snow and Ice Mass Balance Apparatus (SIMBA) is used to determine snow and ice temperatures in Arctic, Antarctic, ice ...

Geomorphology and sedimentology of features formed at the outlet during the final drainage of the Baltic Ice Lake [PDF]
We present a conceptual model for the character of the 11.6 cal. ka BP drainage of the Baltic Ice Lake in the outlet area based on a new geomorphological map as well as new sedimentological information. We combine this new information with a review of the previous work on this well‐studied area.

Holocene shore displacement in the surroundings of Tallinn, North Estonia [PDF]
The Tallinn area was recovered from the Weichselian ice sheet not later than 13 ;000–12 ;800 ;cal ;yr ;BP but remained for ca 1500 years under the waters of the Baltic Ice Lake (BIL).

Pollen and charcoal analyses from Lake Etu-Mustajärvi, Southern Finland, with special reference to an early Holocene Urtica pollen maximum [PDF]
Sediments of a small lake, Etu-Mustajärvi, in southern Finland, were studied with respect to their fossil pollen and charcoal content. Pollen analysis showed a typical development of vegetation from the earliest Holocene onwards, since the isolation of ...
