Tertiary stratigraphy and paleobotany of the Cook Inlet Region, Alaska Cover Image Book Book

Tertiary stratigraphy and paleobotany of the Cook Inlet Region, Alaska / by Jack A. Wolfe, D. M. Hopkins, and Estella B. Leopold.

Wolfe, Jack A., 1936- (Author). Hopkins, David Moody, 1921- (Added Author). Leopold, Estella B. (Added Author).

Summary:

The nonmarine sedimentary rocks of Tertiary age in the Cook Inlet Region, once thought entirely of Eocene age, are shown by paleobotanical evidence to be mostly of Paleocene, Miocene and Pliocene ages.
Three new provincial time-stratigraphic units are proposed: the Seldovian, Homerian and Clamgulchian Stages. Rocks belonging to these three stages are recognized and distinguished from one another primarily by fossil plants.
