Temporal sequence of the White Sea shoreline movement in Holocene according to the study of bottom sediments of lakes in Kuusema region (North Karelia)
The geological, micropaleontological, chronometric data and modeling constructions are presented, allowing to determine the rate of relative shoreline movement considered for Kuusema region, located on the Karelian coast of the White Sea. Object of study is the sediments that have been accumulated in the basins of small lakes located on the coast, in conditions of different sedimentary environments, which have been changing here during the deglaciation and in Holocene under the influence of glacioisostatic land elevation, eustatic sea level changes and tectonic movements of the earth's crust.
