Lake Clark National Park and Preserve: Geologic resources inventory report
Lanik A, Rogers J, Karpilo RD. 2021. Lake Clark National Park and Preserve: Geologic resources inventory report. Natural Resource Report. NPS/NRSS/GRD/NRR—2021/2331. National Park Service. Fort Collins, Colorado. https://doi.org/10.36967/nrr-2288490
Geologic Resources Inventory reports provide information and resources to help park managers make decisions for visitor safety, planning and protection of infrastructure, and preservation of natural and cultural resources. Information in GRI reports may also be useful for interpretation. This report synthesizes discussions from a scoping meeting held in 2005 and a follow-up conference call in 2018. Chapters of this report discuss the geologic setting and significance, geologic features and processes, and geologic resource management issues within Lake Clark National Park and Preserve. Information about the previously completed GRI map data is also provided. GRI map posters (separate product) illustrate these data. Geologic features, processes, and resource management issues identified include volcanoes and volcanic hazards, bedrock, faults and folds, landslides and rockfall, earthquakes, tsunamis, mineral development and abandoned mineral lands, paleontological resources, glaciers and glacier monitoring, lakes, permafrost, and coastal features.
