Explore the geological transformation of Alaska during the Mesozoic Era in this 15-minute conference presentation delivered at the 2020 Geological Society of America Annual Meeting. Learn about the complex tectonic processes that shaped the Northern Cordillera Margin of Laurentia through detailed analysis of geological evidence and structural evolution. Discover how plate tectonics, mountain-building events, and crustal deformation influenced Alaska's geological framework during this critical period in Earth's history. Examine the regional geological context and understand the broader implications of Mesozoic tectonic activity for the development of western North America's continental margin. Gain insights into field research methodologies and geological interpretation techniques used to reconstruct ancient geological processes in Alaska's challenging terrain.
