We present the official land uplift model NKG2016LU of Nordic Commission Geodesy (NKG) for northern Europe. The was released in 2016 and covers an area from 49° to 75° latitude 0° 50° longitude. It shows a maximum absolute 10.3 mm/a near city Umeå Sweden zero-line that follows shores Germany Poland. replaces NKG2005LU 2005. Since then, we have collected more data core areas NKG2005LU, specifically Norway, Sweden, Denmark Finland, included observations Baltic countries as well. Additionally,...
Abstract: The seismicity of Scandinavia is low to intermediate in intensity and with magnitudes that rarely exceed 5.5. Even so, the characterized by a great diversity space time, related fact its driving forces, or sources stress, are multiple also diverse nature. dominant forces range from plate-related (such as ridge push) through regional local ones topography); all, however, somehow lateral inhomogeneities lithospheric structure. Whereas it was earlier assumed post-glacial uplift main...
Changes to mean sea level and/or extremes (e.g., storm surges) will lead changes in coastal impacts. These represent a changing exposure or risk our society. Here, we present 21st century sea-level projections for Norway largely based on the Fifth Assessment Report from Intergovernmental Panel Climate Change (IPCC AR5). An important component of past and change is glacial isostatic adjustment. We therefore pay special attention vertical land motion, which constrained using new geodetic...
In Norway, as in the rest of Fennoscandia, process Glacial Isostatic Adjustment causes ongoing crustal deformation. The vertical and horizontal movements Earth can be measured to a high degree precision using GNSS. Norwegian GNSS network has gradually been established since early 1990s today contains approximately 140 stations. stations are both for navigation purposes studies geophysical processes. Only few these have analyzed previously. We present new velocity estimates processing package...
Abstract Coordinates in global reference frames are becoming more and common positioning whereas most of the geospatial data stored registries national frames. It is therefore essential to know relation between coordinates, i.e., transformation, as accurately possible. Officially provided pan-European transformations do not account for special conditions Nordic Baltic countries, namely crustal deformations caused by Glacial Isostatic Adjustment. Therefore, they fulfill demands accurate...
A unified Chart Datum for the whole Baltic Sea is required use of global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) in accurate 3-D bathymetric surveying and navigation, enabling automated shipping with increased efficiency improved maritime safety. So far, zero levels nautical maps were derived from mean sea level (MSL) different local tide gauges. The inherent height datum differences between neighboring map sheets are a fundamental infrastructural obstacle implementing using new cross-border...
