Paleontological Resource Inventory and Monitoring—Southeast Alaska Network
Santucci VL and Kenworthy JP. 2008. Paleontological Resource Inventory and Monitoring—Southeast Alaska Network. Natural Resource Technical Report. NPS/NRPC/NRTR—2008/108. National Park Service. Fort Collins
The paleontological resources known from the parks of the Southeast Alaska Network are primarily limited to Paleozoic and middle to late Cenozoic fauna and flora. Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve (GLBA) contains some interesting and important Silurian fossil occurrences which have been the focus of recent and ongoing research. Additionally the Fossil Forest described by John Muir provides an important paleoclimatic and taphonomic resource for current and future research. Fossils are not currently known from Klondike Gold Rush National Historical Park (KLGO) and Sitka National Historical Site (SITK).
