Extract

In this paper, the author shewed, by a number of phenomena observable within the coasts of Sweden, chiefly around Stockholm, and on the shores of the Lake Macler and its arms, that the conclusion of the Swedish surveyors in 1821, that a change of the relative level of the land and water along the coasts of the Baltic had in many localities taken place, could not reasonably be disputed.
