Aarhus Bugt, Late Glacial, shore-level changes, sea-level changes, Quaternary
<p>Abstract:<br>
We propose a new relative shore-level curve for the Aarhus Bugt area, an<br>
embayment in eastern Jylland, Denmark, based on a compilation of pub-<br>
lished and new radiocarbon ages of organic material. Lakes existed in the<br>
area during the Late Glacial and Early Holocene. Lake level rose gradually<br>
until the region was inundated by the sea at c. 9000 cal. years BP. The relative<br>
sea level reached a high stand at about 6000 cal. years BP, when the local<br>
relative sea level was c. 3 m above present-day mean sea level. The Aarhus<br>
Bugt area was inundated by the sea later than the Limfjord area in northern<br>
Jylland, but earlier than the Lillebælt region in southern Denmark. The shore-<br>
level curves for these areas differ partly because the glacio-isostatic uplift<br>
was more pronounced in the Limfjord area than farther south and partly<br>
because the northern regions were inundated by the sea earlier than the<br>
southern areas.</p>
