Abstract. Ground penetrating radar (GPR) and paleolimnological studies were carried out on the Solovetsky archipelago in 2022-2023. The work included GPR profiling (GPR OKO-3, antennas with a frequency of 50 and 250 MHz), trigonometric leveling, as well as drilling of lake-bogs sediments and core selection for analytical studies and radiocarbon dating. Previously, geomorphological interpretation of satellite images, digital elevation models and topographic maps was carried out. As a result of the work, new factual data were obtained on the structure of glacial, fluvioglacial, marine and lake-marsh sediments of the region. The position of the upper boundary of the late glacial transgression was confirmed at altitudes of 23-25 m above sea level.

Keywords: glacial and post-glacial sediments, relative sea level, GPR, paleolimnology, White Sea, Solovetsky Archipelago, Late Glacial and Holocene
