Geologic map of Okmok Volcano

Description

Geologic map of Okmok Volcano, Report of Investigation 2023-1, shows the distribution of historic, Holocene, and late Pleistocene volcanic rocks and deposits related to Okmok Volcano. Okmok Volcano is one of 54 historically active volcanoes in the Alaska-Aleutian volcanic arc that stretches across southern mainland Alaska and the Aleutian Islands. Okmok Volcano dominates the northeastern portion of Umnak Island, which is 100 km southwest of Unalaska/Dutch Harbor and 1,400 km southwest of Anchorage. Okmok Volcano is one of the most frequently active volcanoes in the Aleutian volcanic arc. In 1998, the Alaska Volcano Observatory (AVO) began a multi-year effort to expand geophysical monitoring in the central Aleutians Islands, including at Okmok Volcano. These data support the development of a modern geologic map of Okmok Volcano and related investigation of its eruptive history and hazards. The complete report, geodatabase, and ESRI fonts and style files are available from the DGGS website: http://doi.org/10.14509/31015.
