The first eastern migrations of people and knowledge into Scandinavia : evidence from studies of Mesolithic technology, 9th-8th millennium BC
Mikkel Sørensen,Tuija Rankama,Jarmo Kankaanpää,Kjel Knutsson,Helena Knutsson,Stine Melvold,Berit Valentin Eriksen,Håkon Glørstad +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, a team of Scandinavian researchers identified and described a Mesolithic technological concept, referred to as "the conical core pressure blade" concept, and investigated how this concept spread into Fennoscandia and across Scandinavia.

Long-Term Human Impact and Vegetation Changes in a Boreal Forest Reserve: Implications for the Use of Protected Areas as Ecological References
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyzed temporal and spatial gradients of long-term human impact in a large old-growth forest reserve in the far north of Sweden, comparing vegetational changes during the last millennium at three sites with different land use histories.

TL;DR: In this article, the influence of man on vegetation and fire pattern in the vicinity of two early Mesolithic settlements was investigated, through pollen and charred particle analyses, vegetation composition and influence on vegetation.

Aboveground and belowground legacies of native Sami land use on boreal forest in northern Sweden 100 years after abandonment
TL;DR: The long-term ecological effects of two remote former settlements, regularly visited for -300 years by reindeer-herding Sami and abandoned -100 years ago, within an old-growth boreal forest that is considered one of the most pristine regions in northern Scandinavia, demonstrate that aboveground-belowground interactions strongly control ecosystem responses to historical human land use.

Glacio-seismotectonics: ice sheets, crustal deformation and seismicity
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors highlight some of these recent field-based investigations and new postglacial rebound models, and examine their implications for understanding crustal deformation and seismicity during glaciation and following deglaciation.

Reconstruction and regional correlation of Holocene lake‐level fluctuations in Lake Bysjön, South Sweden
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reconstructed lake-level fluctuations in Lake Bysjon from recorded changes in the sediment limit and the content of reworked minerogenic matter in sediment, which are related to past lake level fluctuations by correlation to fluctuations convincingly demonstrated in earlier studies.

Holocene humidity changes in northern Finnish Lapland inferred from lake sediments and submerged Scots pines dated by tree-rings
TL;DR: In this paper, the pine megafossil sampling and dendrochronological work in northern Finnish Lapland has been used to find evidence for a rise in water levels in connection with lake-sediment studies.

Shoreline relation and prehistoric settlement in northern Norway
TL;DR: Moller et al. as discussed by the authors constructed a shoreline relation diagram for northern Norway and found that the age of the shorelines represents a maximum dating for the prehistoric shore-related settlements of the region during various periods.
