“…The long history of active tectonics in Alaska has led to the formation of several major basins, including the Mesozoic foreland Colville and forearc Cook Inlet Basins, Cenozoic backarc Bristol Bay Basin, and Cenozoic stepover basins, including transtensional-transpressional Bethel Basin and rift-transtensional Copper River, Nenana, Selawik, and Yukon Flats Basins (Coleman & Cahan, 2012). These basins have been previously analyzed by geological and geophysical surveys for hazard analysis (Bruhn & Haeussler, 2006;Haeussler et al, 2000), petroleum potential (Bird, 2010;Decker et al, 1988;Kirschner, 1994;Van Kooten, 2012), and relation to tectonic processes (Cole et al, 2004;Dixit et al, 2017;Moore & Box, 2016;Plafker & Berg, 1994). Our results include the first complete 3-D tomographic maps of every major basin in Alaska with high (Colpron et al, 2007) are shown as dashed black lines in (c) with terranes Arctic Alaska (AA), Yukon composite Terrane (YCT), Wrangellia composite Terrane (WCT), and southern margin composite Terrane (SMCT) labeled.…”
