Geologic map of Alaska Geologic map of Alaska
Summary This map and associated digital databases are the result of compilation and interpretation of published and unpublished 1:250,000-scale and limited 1:500,000- to 1:63,360-scale maps. Covering the entire state of Alaska, it reflects more than a century of work by a host of geologists and almost two decades of compilation work. There are two versions of the map: a detailed digital...
Surficial geology and stratigraphy of Pleistocene Lake Manix, San Bernardino County, California Surficial geology and stratigraphy of Pleistocene Lake Manix, San Bernardino County, California
Pluvial Lake Manix and its surrounding drainage basin, in the central Mojave Desert of California, has been a focus of paleoclimate, surficial processes, and neotectonic studies by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) since about 2004. The USGS initiated studies of Lake Manix deposits to improve understanding of the paleoclimatic record and the shifts in atmospheric circulation that...
Bedrock geologic and structural map through the western Candor Colles region of Mars Bedrock geologic and structural map through the western Candor Colles region of Mars
The Candor Colles are a population of low, conical hills along the southeast flank of Ceti Mensa, in west Candor Chasma, within the Valles Marineris system of Mars (fig. 1). Ceti Mensa and the adjacent Candor Mensa are mounds of layered sedimentary deposits and are the most prominent landforms within west Candor Chasma. Prior to the arrival of the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) in...
Quaternary geologic map of the north-central part of the Salinas River Valley and Arroyo Seco, Monterey County, California Quaternary geologic map of the north-central part of the Salinas River Valley and Arroyo Seco, Monterey County, California
Arroyo Seco, a perennial drainage in the central Coast Range of California, records a sequence of strath terraces. These terraces preserve an erosional and depositional history, controlled by both climate change and regional tectonics. These deposits have been mapped and correlated on the basis of field investigations, digital terrain analysis, stream gradient profiles, evaluation of...
