Post-glacial rebound means that land in some parts of the world is still rising after being pressed down by the weight of glaciers. There are Nordic place names with terms like "island", places that were one coastal villages now far from the sea, and Lake Mälaren, once part of the Baltic, became a freshwater lake about 800 years ago. In some areas the land rise is 1cm per year, and is noticeable in someone's lifetime.
