Figure F8. Stratigraphic, depositional, tectonic, and climatic history of the Gulf of Alaska (GoA) and adjacent regions, modified from Lagoe et al. (1993) and Berger et al. (2008a). Lithologic data from Lagoe et al. (1993), Rea and Snoeckx (1995), and Lagoe and Zellers (1996). Bedrock temperature paths vs. time from Berger et al. (2008a). Tectonic events from Lagoe et al. (1993), Stevenson and Embley (1987), Berger et al. (2008a, 2008b), Enkelmann et al. (2010), and Finzel et al. (2011). Oxygen isotope data from global stacks of Lisiecki and Raymo (2005) (black) and Zachos et al. (2001) (gray). IRD = ice-rafted debris. AHe = apatite (U-Th)/He, AFT = apatite fission track, ZHe = zircon (U-Th)/He. MPW = mid-Pliocene warm period.
