The 1979 Uppsala Symposium was arranged as a continuation of the symposium held in Uppsala in 1978 on the deglaciation of Scandinavia earlier than 10,000 B.P. Papers from the latter symposium were published in Boreas , Vol. 8, No. 2 (1979). In the present issue, eleven contributions from the 1979 Symposium are included, among them three general summaries for Norway, Finland, and Sweden. The Symposium and this issue of Boreas form part of the joint Nordic activity within the IGCP project entitled ‘Quaternary Glaciations in the Northern Hemisphere’
