Su<strong>mm</strong>ary of the study by Alaskan group<br />

1. Large uplift rates: 30 <strong>mm</strong>/<strong>yr</strong> at the maximum.<br />

2. The observed rapid rates may not explain from the<br />

tectonic rate.<br />

3. The uplift pattern estimated from the GPS and TG data is<br />

consistent each other in general.<br />

4. A two-layer<br />

viscoelastic model (i.e. Elastic crust and Low<br />

viscosity half-space mantle) is not adequate to explain all<br />

three data sets of the GPS, TG and raised shore line.<br />

Three-layer<br />

viscoelastic earth model (i.e.<br />

Elastic<br />

lithosphere,<br />

low-viscosity<br />

athenosphere and<br />

high-<br />

viscosity lower mantle) is favorable to explain<br />

consistently all three data sets.<br />

5. For the observed viscous motion to the long-term forcing,<br />

there is a possibility that the effect of post-Little Ice Age<br />

contributes.
