Ice-gouged microrelief on the floor of the eastern Chukchi Sea, Alaska: a reconnaissance survey
Lawrence J. Toimil
1978, Open-File Report 78-693
Side-scan sonar and bathymetric records obtained from 1,800 km of trackline from the eastern Chukchi Sea continental shelf, between water depths of 20 and 70 m show the ubiquitous presence of furrow-like linear depressions produced by gouging of the sea bed by ice keels. These sea bed micro-features are regionally...
Impact of coastal processes on resource development with an example from Icy Bay, Alaska
Bruce F. Molnia
1978, Open-File Report 79-1693
The coastline of Alaska is dynamic and continually readjusting to changes in the many processes that operate in the coastal zone. Because of this dynamic nature, special consideration must be made in planning for development, and. caution must be exercised in site selection for facilities to be emplaced in the...
