' Shore terrace of loose material. 



The table above gives the measurements of the altitudes of the 

 upper and lower raised shore-lines measured by Chambers in the region 

 between Hammerfest and Alten (the five first stations), by A. Heiland at 

 eighteen places in the Tromso district (Troms Fylke), and by K. Pettersen 

 at four places (Movik, Greipstad, Ansnes, and Bukskind) near Tromsø. 

 The values of the height of the lower shore-line (the Tapes-line) computed 

 by the formula (2) above from the altitude of the upper shore-line, are 

 yiven in the sixth column of the table. 



The differences between the computed values and the observed ones 

 are in most cases less than a metre, and no greater than what might be 

 expected to be within the limits of observational error. Even in the case
