| Sammendrag: |
During the last few years several caves along the Northern Atlantic coast of Norway have been studied. All these caves face the present sea, but are situated well above the highest post-glacial local shoreline. The caves are mostly of large size often more than 100 m long and around 140 m high. Four of these caves are described, herein and a 1000 km long profile from the Stadt-peninsula in Møre-Romsdal to Andøy in Vesterålen showing the altitudes of the caves, is shown to indicate some isistatic warping. |
