The detailed clay varve chronology and an extensive knowledge of the highest postglacial shore level elevation (HS) in northern Sweden, along the Bothnian western coast, provides opportunities for determining the pattern of isostatic rise and centre
. Central Sweden and western Finland show 10 ka gradients that indicate isostatic response to late (13-10 ka bp) glacial unloading. Indications of a secondary uplift centre west of the present investigation area are reported in previous work; this also

of one of the earliest attempts to control peri-urban development at a regional level in Sweden. The discourse on sprawl is first introduced and the fruitfulness of landscape studies in capturing inherent and conflicting aims within planning is examined
. Subsequent analysis of the seemingly scattered and weak spatial planning of the 1930s and 1940s in Scania, Sweden, reveals an ad hoc regional plan, developed primarily in order to curb scattered development. The importance of the landscape discourse

that Baltic-Bothnian water crossed temporarily ice-free areas with low-altitude thresholds across the Scandinavian mountain range, sporadically allowing drainage towards the Atlantic Sea, and even that Atlantic water could temporarily have entered into Sweden
domain of pine forests, from 70.15°N (Norway) to 50.35°N (Poland) and from 12.02°E (Sweden) to 33.6°E (Russia). The results clearly point to the simultaneous effect of several different mechanisms shaping the structure of soil and the forest floor.
