2016 Alaska Marine Science Symposium Posters and Exhibits January 25 and 26 6:00 Pm to 8:30 Pm 2016 Alaska Marine Science Symposium Posters and Exhibits January 25 and 26 6:00 pm to 8:30 pm Egan Center Explorer’s Hall elcome to the Poster Session and Exhibits for the 2016 Alaska Marine Science Symposium. This year the Wlocation of the Poster Session and Exhibits will be in the Egan Center, Explorer’s Hall. Here is a basic map on how to get there. For posters, you can use this program is intended to guide your through the Poster sessions and the Exhibits. For Exhibits, simply refer to the diagram on pages 9-10. You’ll also find exhibiting organizations listed by full name on page 22. You can use this program to locate posters by author or by topic. To find a particular first author, refer to the author index on pages 3-8. Or to browse by section (topic), use the list on pages 11-21. After you’ve found the poster listing, use the row # and poster # to locate the poster on the diagram on pages 9-10. Note that poster presenters will be standing by their posters to answer questions during specified times called “Waves”. Simply cross- reference the “Wave #” on a particular poster listing to the Wave times shown on page 2 under Poster Receptions.

Fifth Avenue just a few blocks from the Hotel Captain Cook in downtown Anchorage, the Egan Center provides a spacious and convenient location for poster presentations. Site maps are available. You may begin putting up your poster after noon on Monday, January 25. SIZE LIMITATION Restrict the width (side-to-side, either landscape or portrait) of your poster to 48 inches. Poster panels are also 48 inches top to bottom; you may choose to have your poster hang off the edges, but it will not be supported. We recommend posters to be less than 48 inches high so there will be room for the handout folder on the panel. T-pins and/or push pins will be provided on the poster panels for your use. HANDOUTS You are encouraged to bring handouts of your poster or other related information. We will provide cutaway folders that you will be tacked to the poster panel for holding these handouts. POSTER TUBE STORAGE You may leave your poster tube at the poster area IF you tie the tube to the poster board legs so the tube is not on the ground. Twine will be provided for each poster for these purposes. SCHEDULE & PROGRAM Regardless of the geographic region of the research being presented, posters should be displayed during BOTH poster sessions to maximize visibility and traffic. POSTER RECEPTIONS Presenters will be asked to stand by their posters at different times to alleviate congestion and to help judges with time constraints. We are calling these time periods “waves.” Please be available to stand next to your poster at the time (Wave #) you are designated. Wave times are: Monday, Jan. 25 (Arctic and Bering Sea/Aleutian Islands) Tuesday, Jan. 26 (Bering Sea/Aleutian Islands and Gulf of Alaska) Wave 1 - 6:00pm to 7:15pm Wave 1 - 6:00pm to 7:15pm Wave 2 - 7:15pm to 8:30pm Wave 2 - 7:15pm to 8:30pm TAKE-DOWN All posters must be taken down NO LATER THAN 9:15 p.m. on Tuesday, January 26. If you do not remove your poster by this time, it will be removed by symposium volunteers. These orphaned posters will be left on a table outside the Discovery Ballroom of the Hotel Captain Cook on Wednesday morning. Once the symposium is over, the hotel staff will dispose of them. For more information, please contact Mary Whalen, poster coordinator either in person at the Egan Center or at [email protected]. 2 AUTHOR INDEX This author index shows the locations of all of the authors of the 2015 Alaska Marine Science Symposium Poster Session.

  • The Timing of Aleutian Arc Inception and Nascent Magmatic Evolution: Current Status and Future Prospects
    The Timing of Aleutian Arc Inception and Nascent Magmatic Evolution: Current Status and Future Prospects Brian R. Jicha1, Brad S. Singer1, Suzanne M. Kay2, David W. Scholl3 1 University of Wisconsin-Madison, Madison, WI, [email protected], 2 Cornell University, Ithaca, NY 3 University of Alaska-Fairbanks, Fairbanks, AK (in collaboration with: Peter Kelemen, Steve Goldstein, Mike Perfit, Matt Rioux, Tracy Vallier) The Alaska/Aleutian subduction zone was chosen as the highest priority Primary site for Subduction Cycles and Deformation (SCD) research because it is the most seismically and volcanically active region in North America and opportunities for new discoveries abound. Moreover, several unique characteristics of the Aleutian Arc prompt the testing of fundamental hypotheses. For example, the origin of large, systematic variations in fault-slip behavior and magma composition can be investigated along-strike, and the lack of back-arc extension and longitudinal intra-arc rifting that produces remnant arcs means that the entire record of arc growth via magmatic additions is mostly preserved. The latter makes it possible to tightly link the composition and volume of plutonic, extrusive, and metamorphic rocks to seismic measurements of crustal structure (Holbrook et al., 1999; Shillington et al., 2004) and time scales of crustal growth (Kay and Kay, 1985; Jicha et al., 2006). Among the key questions to be addressed through SCD research are: What are the physical and chemical conditions that control the development of subduction zones, including subduction initiation and the evolution of mature arc systems? and, What are the geochemical products of subduction zones and how do these influence the formation of new continental crust? Perhaps the best-studied oceanic case—the Izu Bonin-Marianas (IBM) system—reveals not only the timing (Ishizuka et al., 2011), but also the subsequent compositional evolution of magmatism (Reagan et al., 2008, 2010) associated with subduction initiation.

  • Dendroflora of the Commander Islands, Russia
    Shrubby vegetation along Bujan River on Bering Island. photograph © Gennady Firsov Dendroflora of the Commander Islands, Russia Olga Mochalova, Gennady Firsov The Commander Islands are the western group of the Aleutian Islands, the western extremity and the upper part of a huge underwater volcanic range, which protrudes from east to west for up nearly 2,000 kilometres. They lie in the northern part of the Pacific Ocean, 175 km east of the Kamchatka Peninsula, between latitudes 55º 25’ and 54º 31’ north and longitudes 165º 04’ and 168º 00’ east. The Archipelago of the Commanders consists of two larger islands, these are Bering Island (about 1667 sq. km) and Medny Island (186 sq. km). There are also Toporkov Island (0,4 sq. km), Arij Kamen Island (0,08 sq. km) and numerous small islets, rocks, cliffs and stones. The Islands of Bering and Medny stretch from north-west to south-east with a 49 km wide strait between them. The Islands are of considerable phytogeographic interest because they function as an important bridge for the dispersal of plants between North America and North-East Asia. The total flora is rich and diverse, a wonderful mixture of plants from both continents. The Islands provide a nesting habitat for more than 600,000 sea birds, and they have been included into The International Birds Areas (IBAs) since 1998, being one of the most important regions of the globe for bird life conservation. Most part of the Commanders have been included into the Commander Nature Reserve since 1993. Administratively they belong to the Aleutsky district of the Kamchatka region.

The facility included onshore seismographs similar to USArray-Transportable Array seismographs, upgrades to PBO-GPS facilities, and a fleet of 60 ocean bottom seismometers (OBS’s), twenty of which are specially designed for shallow water use. All data from these instruments are open and freely available as soon as they are recovered, so the facility forms an excellent backbone to a community-based initiative. The Amphibious Array facility is now being deployed off the Cascadia margin, and it future use is to be reviewed before completion of the 4-year deployment. The Amphibious Array should move to the Alaska-Aleutian subduction system upon completion of Cascadia work, to provide a critical base data stream for GeoPRISMS and EarthScope science. For details see the 2009 Planning Workshop report, and for updates on current activities and status, see Cascadia Initiative links, all from www.geoprisms.org/cascadia.html.

Stone Geophysical Institute, University of Alaska, Fairbanks, Alaska, USA Pavel Minyuk Northeast Interdisciplinary Research Institute, Magadan, Russia Early paleomagnetic measurements (late 1960s and early 1970s) from the central Aleutian Island Arc produced both scattered and internally consistent results based solely on alternating field demagnetization. Archived core samples collected from Amchitka and Adak islands for these previous paleomagnetic studies were reanalyzed for this study using modern thermal demagnetization techniques. The new measurements from Amchitka Island indicate significant clockwise rotation (R = 54.7 ± 8.0°) between 14 Ma and the present. Adak Island showed no rotation for volcanic rocks of Quaternary age associated with the present volcanic arc, which is consistent with the lack of rotation seen in other young volcanic rocks (<2 Ma) sampled at localities from Unalaska Island in the east to Kanaga Island in the west. The Eocene Andrew Lake Formation shows a clear magnetic overprint that completely masks any information about possible rotations. Other published studies show rotations similar to those seen for Amchitka Island on Umnak, Amlia, Bering, and Medny islands. Models predicting clockwise rotations involve breaking the forearc into discrete blocks and slivers that rotate and/or travel westward along the curve of the arc in response to the arc-parallel component of the Pacific Plate motion. These models have difficulty explaining the large rotations seen in the easternmost islands sampled, where the relative motion of the Pacific Plate is more or less perpendicular to the arc.
