Submarine groundwater discharge site in the First Salpausselkä ice-marginal formation, south Finland [PDF]
Submarine groundwater discharge (SGD) has been implicated as a significant source of nutrients and potentially harmful substances to the coastal sea. Although the number of reported SGD sites has increased recently, their stratigraphical architecture and

Weichselian glacial stratigraphy in Hyvinkaa, southern Finland [PDF]
Two tills in Hyvinkää represent one Weichselian glaciation: the lower till, named the Tanssikallio Till, being a basal lodgement till formed during the initial stage of the last Weichselian glaciation, and the upper till, named the Hyvinkää Till, being a

Lithostratigraphy of Late Weichselian tills on the West Estonian Islands [PDF]
Glacial stratigraphy of the West Estonian Islands comprises three different diamicton units which are correlated event-stratigraphically to the Pandivere and Palivere ice advances of the most recent (Late Weichselian) glaciation and included into the ...

Timing of the Baltic Ice Lake in the eastern Baltic [PDF]
A shoreline database for the Baltic, covering the Late Weichselian and Holocene, was compiled. The database includes about 1600 sites from Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Fin- land, NW Russia, Poland, Sweden and was used to create a GIS-based ...

Observations on the Quaternary geology of an area between the 2nd Salpausselkä and the ice-marginal formation of central Finland [PDF]
The present study deals with the Quaternary formations and especially with the drumlins in the area between the Salpausselkä system in eastern Finland and the marginal formation of central Finland (Jyväskylä).

Abstract Large‐scale oil spills can have adverse effects on biodiversity in coastal areas where maritime oil transportation is intense. In this article we conducted a spatial risk assessment to study the risk that potential tanker accidents pose to threatened habitat types and species living in the northern Baltic Sea, which has witnessed a rapid ...

In Finland’s digital elevation model, marks of glaciotectonics as an important formation process of glacial geomorphology can be seen. This is a new finding to this extent regarding central parts of the former ice sheets. Deformational processes produced fragmented till surfaces probably mostly by brittle fracture of frozen till.

New evidence of the Vuoksi River origin by geodynamic cataclysm [PDF]
The territory of investigations is located in the SE periphery of the Fennoscandian Shield. It served as an arena of periodic significant restructuring of the hydrographic network associated with the filling and discharge of large late-glacial and ...
