Compilation and preliminary interpretations of hydrologic and water-quality data from the Railroad Industrial Area, Fairbanks, Alaska, 1993-94
M. R. Lilly, K. A. McCarthy, A.T. Kriegler, James Vohden, G.E. Burno
1996, Water-Resources Investigations Report 96-4049
Commercial and industrial activities in the Railroad Industrial Area in Fairbanks, Alaska, have resulted in accidental releases of chemicals to the subsurface. Such releases have generated concern regarding local ground-water quality and the potential impact on nearby water-supply wells. Consequently, a study is being conducted to characterize the environmental and...
Glaciers along proposed routes extending the Copper River Highway, Alaska
R. L. Glass
1996, Water-Resources Investigations Report 96-4074
Three inland highway routes are being considered by the Alaska Department of Transportation and Public Facilities to connect the community of Cordova in southcentral Alaska to a statewide road system. The routes use part of a Copper River and Northwest Railway alignment along the Copper River through mountainous terrain having...
Potential role of vegetation feedback in the climate sensitivity of high-latitude regions: A case study at 6000 years B.P.
J.-E. Kutzbach, P. J. Bartlein, J.A. Foley, S. P. Harrison, Steven W.. Hostetler, Z. Liu, I. C. Prentice, T. Webb III
1996, Global Biogeochemical Cycles (10) 727-736
Previous climate model simulations have shown that the configuration of the Earth's orbit during the early to mid-Holocene (approximately 10–5 kyr) can account for the generally warmer-than-present conditions experienced by the high latitudes of the northern hemisphere. New simulations for 6 kyr with two atmospheric/mixed-layer ocean models (Community Climate Model,...
Gold placers of the historical Fortymile River region, Alaska
Warren E. Yeend
1996, Bulletin 2125
The Fortymile River region in east-central Alaska has a long and colorful history as the site of the first major gold discovery in interior Alaska. Placer gold has been mined in the region nearly every year since its original discovery in 1886. Total gold production is approximately 500,000 troy ounces....
Stratigraphy, structure, and graptolites of an Ordovician and Silurian sequence in the Terra Cotta Mountains, Alaska Range, Alaska
Michael Churkin Jr., Claire Carter
1996, Professional Paper 1555
The geology and graptolite faunas of the Terra Cotta Mountains in south-central Alaska are described. Three new formations of Paleozoic age are named and described; they include graptolitiferous argillaceous rocks, sandstones, and limestones of the Dillinger Terrane. The structure and tectonics of the mapped area arc also discussed. Ninety-five species...
Description of wells drilled at the U.S. Coast Guard Support Center Kodiak, Alaska, 1988-89
M.R. Carr
1996, Open-File Report 96-134
The U.S Coast Guard, in accordance with the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act and the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, is conducting environmental studies at its Support Center in Kodiak, Alaska, to determine if hazardous materials have been spilled or disposed of at the facility. The U.S. Geological...
Mass balance, meteorological, ice motion, surface altitude, and runoff data at Gulkana Glacier, Alaska, 1992 balance year
R.S. March, D.C. Trabant
1996, Water-Resources Investigations Report 95-4277
The 1992 measured winter snow, maximum winter snow, net, and annual balances in the Gulkana Glacier basin were evaluated on the basis of meteorological, hydrological, and glaciological data measured in the basin and are reported herein. Averaged over the glacier, the measured winter snow balance was 0.97 meters on March...
Volcanic activity in Alaska: Summary of events and response of the Alaska Volcano Observatory 1993
Christina A. Neal, Robert G. McGimsey, Michael P. Doukas
1996, Open-File Report 96-24
During 1993, the Alaska Volcano Observatory (AVO) responded to episodes of eruptive activity or false alarms at nine volcanic centers in the state of Alaska. Additionally, as part of a formal role in KVERT (the Kamchatkan Volcano Eruption Response Team), AVO staff also responded to eruptions on the Kamchatka Peninsula,...
Lithostratigraphy, microlithofacies, and conodont biostratigraphy and biofacies of the Wahoo Limestone (Carboniferous), eastern Sadlerochit Mountains, Northeast Brooks Range, Alaska
A.P. Krumhardt, A. G. Harris, K.F. Watts
1996, Professional Paper 1568
The lithostratigraphy, microlithofacies, and conodonts are described in a key section of the Wahoo Limestone (Middle Carboniferous); this unit forms a hydrocarbon reservoir at Prudhoe Bay. The Wahoo was deposited in a range of environments on the inner part of a high-energy carbonate ramp. Microfacies and conodont biofacies used together...
Metamorphic facies map of southeastern Alaska: Distribution, facies, and ages of regionally metamorphosed rocks
Cynthia Dusel-Bacon, D. A. Brew, S. L. Douglass
1996, Professional Paper 1497-D
Nearly all of the bedrock in Southeastern Alaska has been metamorphosed, much of it under medium-grade conditions during metamorphic episodes that were associated with widespread plutonism. The oldest metamorphisms affected probable arc rocks near southern Prince of Wales Island and occurred during early and middle Paleozoic orogenies. The predominant period...
