| description | <p>Postglacial land uplift is a complex process related to the continental ice retreat that took place about 10 000 years ago and thus started the viscoelastic response of the Earth's crust to rebound back to its equilibrium state. To empirically model the land uplift process based on past behaviour of shoreline displacement, data points of known spatial location, elevation and dating are needed. Such data can be obtained by studying the isolation of lakes and mires from the sea. Archaeological data on human settlements (i.e. human remains, fireplaces etc.) are also very useful as the settlements were indeed situated on dry land and were often located close to the coast. This information can be used to validate and update the postglacial land uplift model. In this paper, a collection of data underlying empirical land uplift modelling in Fennoscandia is presented. The data set is available at <a href="https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.905352">https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.905352</a> <span class="cit" id="xref_paren.1">(<a href="#bib1.bibx18">Pohjola et al.</a>, <a href="#bib1.bibx18">2019</a>)</span>.</p> |
