Based on diatom analysis, pollen analysis and radiocarbon dating, a shore-level displacement curve has been constructed for Nord-Jæren, south-west Norway. The upper marine limit on Nord-Jæren, 25–26 m above sea level, must be older than 13 100 ± 190 years B.P. A regression throughout Bølling and Older Dryas times reached down to 11–14 m a.s.l. in Allerød time before a short-lived transgression to approximately 21 m a.s.l. occurred in the transition between Allerød and Younger Dryas. The curve then falls quickly through Younger Dryas.
