Surficial geology and geohazards in the Alaska Highway corridor, Alaska

Description

Surficial geology and geohazards in the Alaska Highway corridor, Alaska, Professional Report 124, presents geologic mapping along the Alaska Highway corridor from Delta Junction to the Canada border. This work supports future infrastructure decisions. We used airphoto and lidar interpretations, helicopter surveys, and ground reconnaissances to perform detailed Quaternary geologic mapping and evaluate potential geohazards. This report compiles the Division's field mapping from 2006 through 2012 and details the Quaternary depositional history and geohazards in the corridor. The complete report, geodatabase, and ESRI fonts and style files are available from the Alaska Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys website: http://doi.org/10.14509/29701.
