Abstract:
New sedimentologic, biostratigraphic, and compositional data from a 415-m-thick section of siliciclastic and volcanic strata document Oligocene synthrusting sedimentation south of the McKinley segment of the Denali fault system. Strata of the Colorado Creek basin are presently exposed on the south side of the central Alaska Range in the footwalls of north-dipping thrust faults. New measured sections define a three-part stratigraphy. Lowermost strata consist of a ~30-m-thick unit of marine sandstone and mudstone that contain Late Cretaceous dinoflagellate taxa. The middle unit consists of ~330 m of conglomerate, sandstone, and mudstone interpreted as braided stream and floodplain deposits. This middle unit contains early Oligocene pollen and spore assemblages. The upper unit is 55 m thick and contains lava flows, tuff, and pumice interpreted as the product of subaerial volcanic eruptions. Direct age data are lacking from the upper unit. Compositional data from the middle unit indicate that detritus was derived from sedimentary and igneous source terranes exposed on both the north and south side of the McKinley fault. Matching source lithologies north of the McKinley fault with conglomerate clast types in the Colorado Creek basin implies 30–33 km of maximum post-early Oligocene dextral displacement along the fault. We interpret the Oligocene strata of the Colorado Creek basin as a product of transpressional deformation that produced north-dipping thrust faults associated with strike-slip displacement on the central Denali fault. Our data from the Colorado Creek basin, in combination with previous studies, document a major episode of middle Eocene – late Oligocene synorogenic sedimentation along the Denali fault from British Columbia to southwestern Alaska.

Abstract:
AbstractIn the western Grand Canyon, fluvial terraces and pediment surfaces, both associated with a Pleistocene basalt flow, document Quaternary aggradation and downcutting by the Colorado River, illuminate the river's response to overload and the end of overload, and allow calibration of soil-carbonate stages and determination of downcutting rates. Four downcutting–aggradation cycles are present. Each begins with erosion of older deposits to form a new river channel in which a characteristic suite of deposits is laid down. The current cycle (I) started ∼700 yr B.P. The oldest (IV) includes the 603,000 ± 8000 to 524,000 ± 7000 yr Black Ledge basalt flow, emplaced when the river channel was ∼30 m higher than it is now. The flow is overlain by basalt–cobble gravel and basalt sand. Soils reach the stage V level of carbonate development. Calibrated ages for soil stages are Stage V, ∼525,000 yr; stage IV, <525,000 yr, ≥250,000 yr; stage III, <250,000 yr, ≥100,000 yr. The monolithologic basalt sand beds represent overloading by volcanic ash produced by an eruption 30–50 km upstream. The basalt–cobble beds signal breaching and rapid destruction of lava dams and erosion of flows. These deposits show that the Colorado River responds to overload by aggrading vigorously during the overload and then downcutting equally vigorously when the overload ends. The overall downcutting rate for the interval studied is 1.6 cm/1000 yr, much lower than rates upstream. The current downcutting rate, 11–14 m/1000 yr, likely is a response both to the end of late Pleistocene and early Holocene overload and to the reduction of sediment supply caused by Glen Canyon Dam.

Abstract:
Every farmer knows that certain crops do better in particular fields, and every gardener knows that some plants grow better in certain spots in the garden. Grapevines are no different. The idea forms the basis of the concept of terroir, and in this and the following two chapters we will meet a number of factors, besides the minerals and rocks we have been talking about, that contribute to it. First, we consider the shape of the land surface. The weathering of rocks produces loose debris—sediment—which sooner or later will move, and this gives rise to erosion. The two processes usually work hand in hand though, strictly speaking, weathering happens in place, whereas erosion results from movement of the debris. We will look more closely at weathering in the next chapter, in the context of generating soil. Here we are concerned with erosion. It may involve sand particles being hurled at outcrops by high winds, or rivers loaded with particles grinding at the land to form a river channel. In some places, rock-charged ice may be gnawing away at the bedrock. Ultimately, the shape of the land surface is the result of how such processes interact with the solid bedrock. In other words, the interplay between erosion and bedrock determines the physical lay of vineyards. Plateaus are level upland areas. They can be formed in any kind of material: it’s the flat, table-like form that defines them. For instance, a vast area of the Deccan Plateau of central India, focus of a burgeoning wine industry, is made up of horizontal flows of basalt lava. The Colorado Plateau in the United States is formed largely of horizontal sedimentary strata. It has been deeply incised by rivers, in places leaving isolated blocks such as mesas and buttes (Figure 8.1; see Plate 18). Mesas have a larger summit area than buttes, compared to their heights. These bodies of rock have not been individually uplifted, as is sometimes claimed. They are remnant blocks, erosion having taken away the strata that were once around them.
