Paleozoic-Mesozoic stratigraphy exposed in the central Alaska Range includes a diverse assemblage of tectonostratigraphic basement terranes overprinted by late Mesozoic basin formation and Cenozoic strike-slip displacement. In this thesis, I present a stratigraphic and structural framework for upper...
