Seismicity and plate tectonics in south Central Alaska

J. D. VAN WORMER, J. DAVIES and L. GEDNEY

GEOPHYSICAL INSTITUTE UNIVERSITY OF ALASKA, FAIRBANKS, ALASKA 99701

Abstract

Hypocenter distribution shows that the Benioff zone associated with the Aleutian arc terminates in interior Alaska some 75 km north of the Denali fault. There appears to be a break in the subducting Pacific plate in the Yentna River-Prince William Sound area which separates two seismically independent blocks, similar to the segmented structure reported for the central Aleutian arc.
