Combined Space Geodetic and Geophysical Measurements for Studies of Crustal Movement in Scandinavia
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 April 2016
Extract
Scandinavia rests upon one of the most stable crustal platforms on the Earth, the Baltic shield. None the less the study of crustal movement is of great importance. Inparticular studies of vertical movement induced by post glacial rebound have been carried out for over 100 years. These have been accomplished usinq water level variations, and more recently in this century using precise levelinq methods. The uplift measurements of Fennoscandia has led to a clearer understanding about the rheology of the crust and upoer mantle of the Earth.
