Introduction to special section: The Trans-Alaska Crustal Transect (TACT) across Arctic Alaska
This special section of the Journal of Geophysical Research addresses the composition and structural evolution of the lithosphere in northern Alaska. Investigations reported in this section were mainly undertaken as part of the Trans‐Alaska Crustal Transect (TACT), an integrated geological and geophysical transect of the entire Alaskan lithosphere along a north‐south corridor undertaken from 1984

Seafloor studies of Mamala Bay, Honolulu, Hawaii
No comprehensive study of the effects of disposal of dredge spoils has been conducted to determine if the environment has suffered. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) has regularly dredged the shipping channels of Honolulu Harbor and Pearl Harbor for commercial and military purposes. The 5-year frequency for new dredging activity has led to the formation of extensive offshore wide deposits o

No: The L.A. array is not ready for prime time
Although much interest will focus upon the temporal behavior of observed deformation, the principal justification for the SCIGN array is that within a 5‐year interval it will provide an accurate and detailed determination of the velocity field in the Los Angeles basin that can be used to identify the active faults and estimate their secular slip rates. Obviously, the accuracy of the measurements w

Geographic relations of landslide distribution and assessment of landslide hazards in the Blanco, Cibuco, and Coamo basins, Puerto Rico
Landslide occurrence is common in mountainous areas of Puerto Rico where mean annual rainfall and the frequency of intense storms are high and hillslopes are steep. Each year, landslides cause extensive damage to property and occasionally result in loss of life. Landslide maps developed from 1:20,000 scale aerial photographs in combination with a computerized geographic information system were use
