    Författare :Else Britt Lindblom; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; names of islands; place-names; place-name structure; compounds; place nomenclature; land uplift; uplifted areas; colonization; personal names; önamn; Luleå skärgård; Namnforskning; Name Care and Name Planning; Place Names; Ortnamn;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis is to present and examine the names of the islands in the archipelago of Luleå innorthern Sweden. The basis for the studies is a collection of names, which contains written forms excerpted from sources from the 14th to the 20th century and local pronunciations of old as well as modern names.

  3. 2. Late Weichselian and early Holocene shore displacement in the central Baltic, based on stratigraphical and morphological records from eastern Småland and Gotland, Sweden

    Författare :Nils-Olof Svensson; Kvartärgeologi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; pollen; Paleontologi; Shore displacement; Land uplift; Paleobotanic;

    Sammanfattning : The glacial unloading and resulting isostatic land uplift have together with hydro-isostasy, eustatic rise of sea-level and geoidal changes, ruled the shore displacement of Fennoscandia. Within the Baltic basin, periods of damming and shifts of outlet further complicated the shore displacement during the period studied, c. 12,200-8400 BP. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Coastal livelihoods : A study of population and land-use in Noarootsi, Estonia 1690 to 1940

    Författare :Hele Kiimann; Tom Mels; Peeter Maandi; Göran Hoppe; Ulf Jansson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Noarootsi; Estonia; cartographical analysis; interdisciplinary study; soil cover change; landscape history; coastal peasants; Estonian-Swedish; feudal manor system; land reform.;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis investigates how the inhabitants formed the coastal landscape of northwest Estonia through both internal change and external impact by estate owners, provincial government and imperial decrees. Two villages on the largely Swedish populated Noarootsi peninsula, Einbi (Enby) and Kudani (Gutanäs), are examined in detail. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Sandgrunnorna in Lule Archipelago : Recent Transformation of a Glaciofluvial Deposit in an Environment of Land Uplift

    Författare :Göran Albjär; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : In an area of rapid land uplift the geomorphological evolution of the glaciofluvial island of Sandgrunnorna, 25 km SE Luleå, in the Bothnian Bay, is discussed from old maps, air photographs and field studies. The island were marked on a map for the first time in 1790, but the highest parts can be estimated to have reached the sea surface about 100 years earlier. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Determination of Land uplift in Areas not covered by Repeated Levellings with application to South-Norway

    Författare :Jan Danielsen; Lars Sjöberg; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning :  The fennoscandia post glacial uplift rate of today, the time averaged vertical velocity, is usually determined by mareographs and repeated leveling. We consider situations where parts of the levelling not are observed only once. LÄS MER
