High-resolution lidar data for infrastructure corridors, Mount Hayes Quadrangle, Alaska

In advance of design, permitting, and construction of a pipeline to deliver North Slope natural gas to out-of-state customers and Alaska communities, the Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys (DGGS) has acquired lidar (light detection and ranging) data along proposed pipeline routes, nearby areas of infrastructure, and regions where significant geologic hazards have been identified. Lidar data will serve multiple purposes, but have primarily been collected to (1) evaluate active faulting, slope instability, thaw settlement, erosion, and other engineering constraints along proposed pipeline routes, and (2) provide a base layer for the state-federal GIS database that will be used to evaluate permit applications and construction plans. The vegetation digital surface models (veg_DSM) represent the above ground elevation of the highest laser return with all vegetation greater than 20 cm above the ground included.

Shoreline change at Alaska coastal communities, Hooper Bay, Alaska

The Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys has analyzed long-term shoreline change at 48 Alaska communities. Shoreline datasets were compiled from previously published U.S. Geological Survey assessments and created from historical and recent aerial images by the Alaska Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys. Shorelines were analyzed to calculate shoreline change rates every 25 meters along coastlines and tidally influenced riverbanks using the Digital Shoreline Analysis System (DSAS; Himmelstoss and others, 2018). The geodatabase for each community includes shoreline positions, the alongshore baseline used to cast transects, and transects that include shoreline change rates and statistics. All files can be downloaded free of charge from the Alaska Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys website (http://doi.org/10.14509/30552).

Interpretive bedrock geologic map of the Sagavanirktok B-1 Quadrangle, eastern North Slope, Alaska

Report of Investigation 2000-1B, Interpretive bedrock geologic map of the Sagavanirktok B-1 Quadrangle, eastern North Slope, Alaska, provides 1:63,360-scale geologic mapping of the Sagavanirktok B-1 Quadrangle (640 square km equivalent to four 7.5 minute quadrangles). This mapping project reinterprets micropaleontologic correlations for 17 Sagavanirktok Quadrangle wells and reprocesses data from the one publicly-available seismic line. Surface geologic mapping, subsurface-to-surface stratigraphic age control, and seismic framework are required to reliably decipher the complex geology of this key area of the Brooks Range. Outcrops within the Sagavanirktok B-1 Quadrangle are the closest surface expressions of Prudhoe Bay source and reservoir rocks. This study yields critical petroleum-related information from these surface exposures and how they relate to the area subsurface stratigraphy. The complete report, geodatabase, and ESRI fonts and style files are available from the DGGS website: http://doi.org/10.14509/2676.

Bedrock-geologic map, Alaska Highway corridor, Little Gerstle River to Dot Lake, Alaska

Preliminary Interpretive Report 2019-1, Bedrock-geologic map, Alaska Highway corridor, Little Gerstle River to Dot Lake, Alaska, shows the distribution of bedrock units along the Alaska Highway in parts of the Mt. Hayes C-1, C-2, D-1, and D-2 quadrangles. It is the westernmost of three bedrock-geologic maps along the Alaska Highway corridor. It is part of a multi-year project conducted by the Alaska Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys (DGGS) between 2006 and 2013. The project focused on investigating and reporting the geology and geologic hazards of the corridor. Bedrock units were mapped and structural elements were measured in the field; where bedrock units are covered by surficial units and vegetation, units were interpreted using airborne-magnetic and electromagnetic surveys published by DGGS in 2006. Rock names were assigned based on field and petrographic observations, modal-mineral percentages, and interpretations of geochemical data. The complete report, geodatabase, and ESRI fonts and style files are available from the DGGS website: http://doi.org/10.14509/30036.

Glaciers and climate of the upper Susitna Basin, Alaska; supporting data

As part of a study for a proposed hydropower facility, Alaska Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys staff and project collaborators from the University of Alaska Fairbanks, Alaska Energy Authority, and Colorado State University conducted extensive field observations in the Upper Susitna basin, a 13,289 km2 (5,130 mi2) glacierized catchment in central Alaska, in 2012-2014. We measured glacier mass balance and surface characteristics on the five largest glaciers in the Upper Susitna Basin to see how the glaciers have changed over recent years and estimate their contribution to the total runoff in the basin. We installed two large weather stations-one on West Fork Glacier and one adjacent to Susitna Glacier-to aid in glacier modeling. Around the rest of the basin, we installed 26 stations that measured air temperature and relative humidity, 10 of which also measured precipitation and nine of which measured soil temperature. These stations help to characterize the weather across a high elevation basin with very sparse measurements. We characterized soil profiles at nine sites to verify that they match up with mapped soil textures. This comprehensive data set includes meteorological, glacier mass balance, snow cover, and soil measurements. We also include digitized snow depth data from a set of similar observations collected in the 1980s. Users can access the complete report and digital data from the DGGS website: http://doi.org/10.14509/30138.

Surficial-geologic map of the Eagle A-2 Quadrangle, Fortymile mining district, Alaska

Preliminary Interpretive Report 2001-3C, Surficial-Geologic Map of the Eagle A-2 Quadrangle, Fortymile mining district, Alaska, provides 1:63,360-scale geologic mapping of the Eagle A-2 Quadrangle. The area is part of the 100-year old Fortymile mining district and is located in eastern Alaska near the Alaska-Yukon border. This map illustrates the distribution of a variety of unconsolidated deposits and undifferentiated bedrock in the Eagle A-2 Quadrangle, Fortymile mining district. It was prepared by the interpretation of 1:63,360-scale, false-color, infrared aerial photographs taken from July 1978 through August 1981 and is locally verified by ground observations during field visits. The results should be considered reconnaissance in nature. The dominant unconsolidated deposit is colluvium, which mantles most surfaces other than the tops of ridges and those areas immediately adjacent to streams. Three levels of stream terrace can be traced along major drainages at elevations of roughly 200, 100, and 30 meters above modern streams. A fourth low terrace is limited to the southwest part of the map area. Pleistocene mammalian remains have been recovered from ice-rich organic silt and muck overlying placer gravels in many valleys.
