An important motivation for understanding orogenesis here, and throughout the Coast Range, is the concern about the relationship of active deformation to seismic hazards associated with the Cascadia subduction zone. There is also much interest in apportioning the nature of the deformation, whether cyclic or permanent, whether it involves mainly shortening parallel or normal to the margin, and how the deformation on the pro- versus retrowedge sides of the orogen compare. Pre-Holocene stratigraphy and structure provide the only records of suffi cient duration to separate long-term permanent deformation from earthquake-cycle elastic deformation. For this reason, active-tectonic studies have focused on deformation of Quaternary deposits and land- forms, which are best preserved along the Pacifi c Coast and offshore on the continen- tal shelf. At least four major glacial advances are recorded in the valley and coastal deposits along the western margin of the Olympic Peninsula. Both numeric and relative dating, including soils of these deposits, establish a stratigraphic anchor that is used to document the relationship between margin parallel and margin normal deformation in Pazzaglia, F.J., Thackray, G.D., Brandon, M.T., Wegmann, K.W., Gosse, J., McDonald, E., Garcia, A.F., and Prothero, D., 2003, Tectonic geomorphology and the record of Quaternary plate boundary deformation in the Olympic Mountains, in Swanson, T.W., ed., Western Cordillera and adjacent areas: Boulder, Colorado, Geological Society of America Field Guide 4, p. 37–67.

Pazzaglia et al. the Olympic Mountains, which, on a geologic time scale (>103 yr), seems to be the fast- est deforming part of the Cascadia forearc high. The glacial stratigraphic framework is extended to fl uvial terraces of the Clearwater drainage, which remained unglaciated during the late Pleistocene and Holocene, preserving a record of river incision, with each terrace recording the shape and height of past long profi les. We assess how fl uvial terraces are formed in this tectonically active setting and then use features of the ter- races to estimate incision rates along the Clearwater long profi le. The long fl uvial his- tory preserved in the Clearwater ensures that the unsteady deformation associated with the earthquake cycle is averaged out, leaving us with a record of long-term rock uplift as well as horizontal shortening. We show, however, that the earthquake cycle may play an important role in terrace genesis at the millennial time scale.

  • Olympic Peninsula Tourism Commission 2019 Media Kit
    Olympic Peninsula Tourism Commission 2019 Media Kit Hoh Rain Forest, Olympic National Park Located in Washington’s northwest corner, the Olympic Peninsula is a land like no other. It is both environmentally and culturally rich. From the jigsaw coastlines, temperate rainforest, and glacial-capped peaks of Olympic National Park to the organic farms and wineries of the Dungeness and Chimacum Valleys; from the cultural centers of native tribes dotting the Highway 101 Pacific Coast Scenic Byway to the maritime history of its port towns, there’s an adventure for every age and spirit here. Holiday Lights Blyn, WA Olympic National Park A Modern-day Eden The Olympic Peninsula is home to the 1,400 square mile Olympic National Park. A designated UNESCO World Heritage Site and International Biosphere Reserve, the park has three distinctly different ecosystems; the Pacific coastline, the Olympic Mountains and the primeval rain forests. In 1976, Olympic became an International Biosphere Reserve; and in 1981, it was designated a World Heritage Site. These diverse ecosystems are still largely pristine due to its wilderness designations. The wild and rugged coastline along the Pacific Ocean stretches over 70 miles and is the longest undeveloped coast in the contiguous United States. The extensive alpine forests are home to some of the world’s largest conifers, towering 300 feet tall and measuring 25 feet around. Among the ancient forests of old-growth trees exists the largest temperate rainforest on the earth. Found on the Pacific Coast of North America, stretching from Oregon to Alaska. The rugged Olympic Mountains, home to Mount Olympus and over 60 glaciers, are thought to be beautiful enough for the gods to dwell.

In this paper, we Mantle plumes integrate geochemical and geochronological data to investigate the petrogenetic evolution of the province. Oceanic plateau Large igneous provinces The major element geochemistry of the Siletzia lava flows is used to determine the compositions of the primary magmas of the province, as well as the conditions of mantle melting. These primary magmas are compositionally similar to modern Ocean Island and Mid-Ocean Ridge lavas. Geochemical modelling of these magmas indicates they predominantly evolved through fractional crystallisation of olivine, pyroxenes, plagioclase, spinel and ap- atite in shallow magma chambers, and experienced limited interaction with crustal components.
