Edited by Peter Johansson and Pertti Sarala Geological Survey of Finland, Special Paper 46 Applied Quaternary research in the central part of glaciated terrain Proceedings of the INQUA Peribaltic Group Field Symposium 2006 Oulanka biological research station, Finland, September 11.–15. Edited by Peter Johansson and Pertti Sarala Geological Survey of Finland Espoo 2007 Johansson, P. & Sarala, P. (eds.) 2007. Applied Quaternary re- search in the central part of glaciated terrain. Geological Survey of Finland, Special Paper 46, 161 pages, 100 fi gures, 7 tables. The INQUA Peribaltic Group Field Symposium was held in Sep- tember 11.–15.2006 in the central and northern part of Finland. Topics related to Late Pleistocene glaciogenic deposits in the central part of the Scandinavian ice sheet were discussed during the excursions and meeting. This publication contains 21 peer-re- viewed papers that are based on the oral and poster presentations given at the symposium. The papers represent a wide range of recent Quaternary research achievements in the glaciated areas of northern Europe, America and Antarctica. The fi rst paper by Sarala gives a general presentation of the glacial stratigraphy and characteristics of southern Lapland and Koillismaa in Finland. In the next papers Yevzerov et al. and Kor- sakova & Kolka present results relating to deglaciation history in the Kola Peninsula. Depositional conditions and deposits of the . last deglaciation are also discussed in the papers by Karmaziene et al. and Baltr0nas et al. for the northern and southern parts of Lithuania respectively. In the next papers the subglacial hydrography and drainage of the melting phase are discussed. The paper by Johansson deals with meltwater action and deposits in northern Finland. In the papers by Sutinen et al. and Rattas the development of subglacial drainage systems and the related deposits are presented. Sub- glacial tunnel valleys and their sedimentation are introduced by Kehew & Kozlowski. In the paper by Hang et al. varved clay studies in proglacial sedimentary environment in western Estonia are presented. Stud- ies of buried organic sediments in the glaciolacustrine/-marine environment in Estonia are discussed by Saarse et al. In the sec- ond paper by Sutinen et al. macrofossils relating to the birch-pine- spruce succession in western Finnish Lapland have been studied. Sharapova & Semenova and Bolikhovskaya & Molodkov have done pollen investigations for palaeoenvironmental reconstruc- tion in Kola Peninsula and Estonia. In the paper by Gyllencreutz et al. a new GIS-based reconstruction and dating database are presented. Seismotectonic events in Lapland are discussed in the third paper of Sutinen et al. and in Kola region in the paper of Yevze- rov & Nikolaeva. An example of the applied use of geophysical methods in the study of lithology and hydraulic properties of tills is given in the fourth paper of Sutinen et al. In the last papers, the urban geology of Tartu in Estonia is discussed by Kalm, and in southern Finland by Ojala and Palmu and morphotectonic inves- tigations of the Antarctic by Lastochkin & Krotova-Putintseva. Key words (GeoRef Thesaurus, AGI): glacial geology, degla- ciation, meltwater channel, glacial features, sediments, paleo- botany, Quaternary, symposia.

  • Answers to the Comments by Reviewer RC2
    Answers to the comments by reviewer RC2: General comments: 1) My main issue with this manuscript has to do with its readability. There are numerous grammatical errors throughout, some of which are pointed out below. A native English speaker should edit the paper before resubmission. This is now done. The authors are grateful for the thorough review also concerning the language. 2) The authors tend to make some broad sweeping conclusions based on trends that are only significant across a small fraction of the total study region. I would like to see more discussion of the full picture (like Figure 9). Pg 10 L2 and Pg11 L5 are two instances where the discussion is too narrow in focus. The authors have now extended the mentioned discussions (sections 3.1.1, 3.1.3 and 3.3.) as requested. The systematic signal of change is not as dramatic in Finland as in some areas, because of the large variation of winter weather. Especially the sea ice extent of Baltic Sea affects largely the Finnish winter weather. If the Gulf of Finland and Gulf of Bothnia freeze completely the Finnish climate is almost continental in winter even on the coast. We added a comment about the hemispherical study published recently, where we studied the effect of weather parameters on the observed changes in larger areas. Section 3.1.1 main addition: Especially variable melt onset timing is in the coastal regions (Southwestern Finland and Southern Ostrobothnia) and in the Lake district. For those regions the standard deviation values of the melt onset day are 14.3, 14.7 and 14.6, respectively.

    Antti Leino, Finland 665 Multilingual Names on the Finnish Basic Map Antti Leino Finland Abstract The Finnish Basic Map and the computerised Place Name Register maintained by the National Land Survey for map-making purposes have place names in five different languages: the official Finnish and Swedish, and three semi-official Sámi languages. As one would expect, distributions of the various languages overlap, and roughly one percent of the named places have names in more than one language. All five naming systems are similar enough that semantically transparent toponyms can be translated from one language to another. The three Sámi languages are also similar enough that virtually all common multilingual names are also common in each of their respective languages. This is also true for Finnish and Swedish, but the names common to Finnish and the Sámi languages often involve elements that have a more limited geographic distribution in Finnish. All this gives some insight into the underlying cultural interplay, and also into the role of semantic transparency in name use. *** Introduction The Republic of Finland has two official and five semi-official languages, as shown in Table 1. Of these the Sámi languages, Finnish, and Swedish have the longest history of being spoken in the region, reaching further back than historical records. Pitkänen (2001) outlines how originally Finnish toponyms along the southern coast have been loaned to a new, Swedish-speaking population in the early Middle Ages, and also dates (1990) some of them to as early as the end of the last millennium B.C. Loan words in the Finnic languages also make it clear that contacts with Germanic languages have been constant since prehistoric times, and it has been argued (Itkonen 1983) that contacts with Indo-Europeans, both Baltic and Germanic, were the original cause for the differentiation of Finnic and Sámi languages.

  • Answers to the Comments by Reviewer RC1: This Is an Interesting
    Answers to the comments by reviewer RC1: This is an interesting and thorough study, but some of the methods are hard to follow. In particular, I recommend some effort on simplifying and clarifying the descriptions of sigmoid fits in sections 2.2.1 and 2.2.2; figures of example fits might help. The authors are grateful for the encouraging comment. The sigmoid fitting is described now in more detail and related images are included. The method sounds complicated, because one has to take into account also rare, but possible complications (such as marked snowfall after melt onset). However, the main complication really to take into account is the greening up of vegetation. This is demonstrated in the added Figure 2, where we also now include examples of temporary pits before melt onset and temporary peaks after snow melt. Minor comments: page 1, line 26. Forest cover having a significant influence on albedo does not follow from it being an important component of the carbon budget. This sentence is now edited according to the comment. page 2, line 11. “by in” – delete one “in” is deleted as requested. page 2, line 24 “since 200” is sufficient “Year” is removed as suggested. page 3, line 3 I think that standalone forcing of land models with climate model outputs is being dis- cussed here, but it is not clear. The text is edited (page 3, line 6). page 4, line 6 Delete “only” “Only” is deleted as requested. page 5, line 21 “using in-situ FSC observations” Is FSC %-units simply %? Yes, the FSC units is %.

DOI: 10.3285/eg.66.1.04 Abstract: The area between the Pomeranian end moraine and the town of Eberswalde, located in the Torun-Eberswalde ice marginal val- ley (IMV), has long been considered to represent a sequence of proglacial landforms in good agreement with the model of the glacial series of Penck & Brückner (1901–1909). The most prominent geomorphological feature in the area is the Pomeranian end moraine which was formed at about 20 ka. However, the meltwater deposits in the research area were not only formed by melt- waters from the Pomeranian ice margin but also by those draining the Parstein and the Angermünde subphases of the retreating Scandinavian Ice Sheet (SIS). The main meltwater discharge was assumed to have followed a major valley structure, which today forms a gap in the end moraine ridge. The analysis of the landforms, their altitudes as well as the surface features, by means of a high-resolution digital elevation model (DEM) based on light detection and ranging (LiDAR) data now allow a new interpreta- tion.

Moreenimuodos- tumista löytyy kuitenkin sellaista luonnon geologista, biologista ja maisemallista monimuotoisuutta, jolla suojeluarvojen kannalta on huomattavaa merkitystä. Mo- reenimuodostumiin liittyy samantyyppisiä maisemallisia ja elollisen luonnon arvoja kuin kallioihin ja harjuihin;
