Scientific paper

Crustal motion predicted by the ICE-3G glacial rebound model exhibits a pattern of tangential (horizontal) divergence away from the centers of uplift, which in North America and Europe are located around Hudson Bay and the Gulf of Bothnia. Tangential velocities reach peak magnitudes of 1-2 mm/yr, and must be included when predicting VLBI baseline length change rates due to postglacial rebound. Out of 18 observed VLBI baselines examined three are situated such that their predicted length rates are around their 2 sigma uncertainties or greater. It is encouraging that two of these baselines exhibit predicted length rates within 2 sigma of the observed rates.
