摘要:The Kattegat region is located in the wrench zone betweenthe Fennoscandian shield and the Danish Basin that hasrepeatedly been tectonically active. The latest ice advancesduring the Quaternary in the southern part of Kattegat werefrom the north-east, east and south-east (Larsen et al. 2009).The last deglaciation took place at c. 18 to 17 ka BP (Lagerlund& Houmark-Nielsen 1993; Houmark-Nielsen et al.2012) and was followed by inundation of the sea that formeda palaeo-Kattegat (Conradsen 1995) with a sea level that wasrelatively high because of glacio-isostatic depression. Around17 ka BP, the ice margin retreated to the Øresund regionand meltwater from the retreating ice drained into Kattegat.Over the next millennia, the region was characterised by regressionbecause the isostatic rebound of the crust surpassedthe ongoing eustatic sea-level rise, and a regional lowstandfollowed at the late glacial to Holocene transition (Mörner1969; Thiede 1987; Lagerlund & Houmark-Nielsen 1993;Jensen et al. 2002a, b).
