Topographic Development History of the Alaska Range

The overall goal of this project is to use variations in sediment source through time as a proxy for deciphering the uplift history of the Alaska Range (Fig. 1). In particular, we tracked variations in sediment provenance through time for the Oligocene to present Tanana Basin. The three main sedimen...
