MARC recordGeomorphology and bio-geographic zonation of southern Alaskan coasts: a review / Jörg-Friedhelm Venzke.
| Title: | Geomorphology and bio-geographic zonation of southern Alaskan coasts: a review / Jörg-Friedhelm Venzke. |
| Author(s): | Venzke, Jörg-Friedhelm. |
| Date: | 2003. |
| In: | Erde, Die. (2003.), Vol. 134(4) (2003) |
| Abstract: | Intensive Pleistocene glaciations and Holocene isostatic uplift have influenced Alaskan regional landscape development, creating a fjordland along the southern Alaskan coastline. However, tectonic effects, like coseismic dislocations are important in south central Alaska. Study gives a detailed overview of coastal geomorphic processes and continental movements modified by sediment discharge from rivers and tidewater glaciers, tides and surf zone processes. Also presents the typical bio-zonation of tidal flats, beaches and rocky shores. |
