Geologic Resource Evaluation Scoping Summary Arctic Network
Thornberry-Ehrlich T. 2008. Geologic Resource Evaluation Scoping Summary Arctic Network
The National Park Service held a GRE scoping meeting for the Arctic Network on May 8-10, 2007 at the National Park Service building in Fairbanks, Alaska. Tim Connors (NPS-GRD) facilitated the discussion of map coverage and Bruce Heise (NPS-GRD) led the discussion regarding geologic processes and features at the network parks. Participants at the meeting included NPS staff from the network and Geologic Resources Division, geologists from the Alaska Division of Geological and Geophysical Surveys and U.S. Geological Survey as well as cooperators from Colorado State University and other academics (see table 1). This scoping summary highlights the GRE scoping meeting for the Arctic Network parks (Bering Land Bridge National Preserve, Cape Krusenstern National Monument, Gates of the Arctic National Park and Preserve, Kobuk Valley National Park, and Noatak National Preserve) including the geologic setting, the plan for providing a digital geologic map, a list of geologic resource management issues, a description of significant geologic features and processes, lists of recommendations and action items, and a record of meeting participants.
