Southeast Alaska Deformation

This link will present a map of current (Sept 2002) gps determined velocities in SE Alaska, relative to stable North America.

This link is a close-up of the map above, zoomed in on Lituya Bay, on the outer coast of Glacier Bay National Park.

This link is also a close-up view of the first map, but shows more of the strike-slip boundary of the southern Yakutat Block.
