About The Product
Published by the American Geophysical Union as part of the Field Trip Guidebooks Series.
The first part of the trip will focus on a modern forearc embayment, lower Cook Inlet (Fig. 1). Though erosive processes dominate in Cook Inlet, excellent examples of fan deltas, macrotidal bayhead depositional systems, and depositional spits occur throughout the area. These depositional features, plus spectacular erosional coastlines, typically mild weather, and some of the most beautiful scenery on earth, should combine to provide for an enjoyable visit.
