Postglacial relative sea‐level history: sediment and diatom records of emerged coastal lakes, north‐central Kola Peninsula, Russia
Sediment cores recovered from four emerged lakes (54, 41, 22, and 7 m a.s.l.) provide new data on the deglaciation and relative sea‐level history of the Murman coast, Kola Peninsula. The transition from marine to lacustrine sediment is identified in the cores by analysis of sediment physical propert...
