Studying glacial isostatic adjustment is vital for projecting future sea levels, but getting into this field poses challenges to early-career scientists, say @rebekka-geo.bsky.social & @landuplift.bsky.social + colleagues from @byrdpolar.bsky.social & @lamont.columbia.edu.

SW Baltic Sea faults were quite active in the last 200 ka, related to release of Saalian and Weichselian ice sheets induced stress release. See new study by Seidel et al.: doi.org/10.1111/bor..... Also show a snapshot where future earthquakes (next 1000 a) may be related to such stresses.
Drivers of glacially induced fault reactivation in the Baltic Sea sector of the Tornquist Fan
We analyse the effect of Quaternary glaciations on the complex tectonic pattern of the Baltic Sea sector of the Tornquist Fan. Using 2D marine reflection seismic data we determine the strike and dip ....

Determining the land uplift signal in gravity measurements might be delayed by stubborn animals. But just a little. Read more in this #EGU #Geodesy blog by @rebekka-geo.bsky.social and myself blogs.egu.eu/divisions/g/...
Geodesists on Tour: Taking Greta Gravimeter to the North
Summer is coming to an end in the northern hemisphere, and it usually signals the end of the field season – at least in northern Europe. During the field season, we mostly take our absolute gravimeter...

⚒️Have you ever heard of Glacial Isostatic Adjustment? 🏔️🧊No worries, if you haven't. We've got you covered! We asked
@landuplift.bsky.social, @rebekka-geo.bsky.social and Yucheng Lin. And they told us a lot of interesting facts about GIA. So, go and have a look at it!
