O genezie polskiego brzegu Baltyku

Abstract

THE ORIGIN OF THE POLISH BALTIC SEA-SHORE Summary Numerous papers have been published on the origin of the Polish Baltic sea-shore. About a dozen of hypotheses may be gathered up into two groups, as follows: a) hypotheses based on exogenous factors as main forces, taking part in scoping the shore-line, and b) hypotheses based on endogenous factors thought to be decisive ones. The conception presented in this paper inclines to the second group of hypotheses. The author presents a relationship between the main elements of the shore-line and the distribution of neotectonic movements.
