While the mean overall apparent uplift is of the order of 2 mm/yr today, in the early Holocene time it was several times higher. A marked decrease in the rebound rate occurred around 8500 BP, however, since then the uplift rate has remained high until today, with a slightly decreasing trend towards the present time. -

Late Weichselian and Holocene Shore Displacement History of the Baltic Sea in Finland
Late Weichselian and Holocene shore displacement history of the Baltic Sea in Finland MATTI TIKKANEN AND JUHA OKSANEN Tikkanen, Matti & Juha Oksanen (2002). Late Weichselian and Holocene shore displacement history of the Baltic Sea in Finland. Fennia 180: 1–2, pp. 9–20. Helsinki. ISSN 0015-0010. About 62 percent of Finland’s current surface area has been covered by the waters of the Baltic basin at some stage. The highest shorelines are located at a present altitude of about 220 metres above sea level in the north and 100 metres above sea level in the south-east. The nature of the Baltic Sea has alter- nated in the course of its four main postglacial stages between a freshwater lake and a brackish water basin connected to the outside ocean by narrow straits. This article provides a general overview of the principal stages in the history of the Baltic Sea and examines the regional influence of the associated shore displacement phenomena within Finland. The maps depicting the vari- ous stages have been generated digitally by GIS techniques. Following deglaciation, the freshwater Baltic Ice Lake (12,600–10,300 BP) built up against the ice margin to reach a level 25 metres above that of the ocean, with an outflow through the straits of Öresund. At this stage the only substantial land areas in Finland were in the east and south-east. Around 10,300 BP this ice lake discharged through a number of channels that opened up in central Sweden until it reached the ocean level, marking the beginning of the mildly saline Yoldia Sea stage (10,300–9500 BP). -

Reid and Marina I. Orlova1 Abstract: Between 1985 and 2000, ~70% of new species that invaded the North American Great Lakes were endemic to the Ponto-Caspian (Caspian, Azov, and Black seas) basins of eastern Europe. Sixteen Ponto-Caspian species were also established in the Baltic Sea as of 2000. Many Ponto-Caspian endemic species are characterized by wide environmental tolerances and high phenotypic variability. Ponto-Caspian fauna evolved over millions of years in a series of large lakes and seas with widely varying salinities and water levels and alternating periods of isolation and open connections between the Caspian Sea and Black Sea depressions and between these basins and the Mediterranean Basin and the World Ocean. These conditions probably resulted in selection of Ponto-Caspian endemic species for the broad environmental tolerances and euryhalinity many exhibit. Both the Baltic Sea and the Great Lakes are geologi- cally young and present much lower levels of endemism. The high tolerance of Ponto-Caspian fauna to varying environmental conditions, their ability to survive exposure to a range of salinities, and the similarity in environmental conditions available in the Baltic Sea and Great Lakes probably contribute to the invasion success of these species. Human activities have dramatically increased the opportunities for transport and introduction and have played a cata- lytic role. Résumé : Entre 1985 et 2000, environ 70 % des espèces qui ont envahi pour la première fois les Grands-Lacs d’Amérique du Nord étaient endémiques aux bassins versants de la région pontocaspienne de l’Europe de l’Est, soit ceux de la mer Caspienne, de la mer d’Azov et de la mer Noire. -

The Late Quaternary Development of the Baltic Sea
The late Quaternary development of the Baltic Sea Svante Björck, GeoBiosphere Science Centre, Department of Geology, Quaternary Sciences, Lund University, Sölveg. 12, SE-223 62 Lund, Sweden INTRODUCTION Since the last deglaciation of the Baltic basin, which began 15 000-17 000 cal yr BP (calibrated years Before Present) and ended 11 000-10 000 cal yr BP, the Baltic has undergone many very different phases. The nature of these phases were determined by a set of forcing factors: a gradually melting Scandinavian Ice Sheet ending up into an interglacial environment, the highly differential glacio-isostatic uplift within the basin (from 9 mm/yr to -1mm/yr; Ekman 1996), changing geographic position of the controlling sills (Fig. 1), varying depths and widths of the thresholds between the sea and the Baltic basin, and climate change. These factors have caused large variations in salinity and water exchange with the outer ocean, rapid to gradual paleographic alterations with considerable changes of the north-south depth profile with time. For example, the area north of southern Finland-Stockholm has never experienced transgressions, or land submergence, while the developmen south of that latitude has been very complex. The different controlling factors are also responsible for highly variable sedimentation rates, both in time and space, and variations of the aquatic productivity as well as faunal and floral changes. The basic ideas in this article follow the lengthy, but less up-dated version of the Baltic Sea history (Björck, 1995), a more complete reference list and, e.g., the calendar year chronology of the different Baltic phases can be found on: http://www.geol.lu.se/personal/seb/Maps%20of%20the%20Baltic.htm. -
