A: 100% uplift 20Ma
B: ICE-hypothesis:Topography can live long. Erosion is modulated strongly by climate.Climate may be the global agent behind coordinated Neogene uplifts seen in Norway, Greenland and globally.

Possible mechanismfor tectonic uplift about 20My ago
![Page 13: The Scandinavian Mountain chain: deep processes](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062612/613d4006736caf36b75b19c5/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
From Rohrman and van der Beek (1996)
Initial temperature anomaly of 400o:
Residual thermal anomalies or compositional heterogeneities
Density anomaliesSeismic velocity anomalies
![Page 14: The Scandinavian Mountain chain: deep processes](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062612/613d4006736caf36b75b19c5/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Possible model for elevated surface:
A remnant of Caledonides flattened by glacier erosion.
Remnant of Caledonides implies a
root to sustain the topography, whereas recent uplift would imply mantle anomalies below a rootless crust.

Is the mountain sustained by a crustal root?
Moho depth from receiver function along the Cenmove profile (Univ. Aarhus)
Refraction (Magnus-Rex) in the same area gives 36-38km for Moho depth.

Could part of the lithosphere has delaminated?
Realistic from a time scale point of view?
Can a dynamic process has produced this without a density anomaly visible today?
Relation to Atlantic opening, Icelandic plume?
How long can we keep topography?
