The shoreline displacements are based on a mathematical model driven by empirical data of shoreline displacement curves, lake tilting studies and present rebound. Dark blue surfaces represent seawater and light blue surfaces freshwater.

The GIS implementation was done with ArcInfo.

The ice margin positions are based on literature, mainly Geology, the National Atlas of Sweden, and interpolations done with ArcInfo.
