Abstract

The results from a Nordic research project on Quaternary geology, entitled the Nordkalott project, were presented at a symposium in northern Sweden in 1987. Organic deposits and tills in northern Fennoscandia are interpreted as belonging to the Eemian as well as to interstadials and stades of the Weichselian. Retreat of the ice front under cold climatic conditions has been assumed for parts of northern Norway. Ice‐dammed lakes formed during the deglaciation period are described from northern Finland. Boreas, Vol. 17, no. 4, consists of articles based on the symposium contributions.
