The Queen Charlotte Fault system is a segment of the North America - Pacific
plate boundary. From 45 Ma - 5 Ma, plate motion has been primarily translational.
Since 5 Ma, transpression has been the dominant mode of interaction. The plate
boundary...

Numerous studies have demonstrated that vegetation canopies affect snow
accumulation and ablation processes. In addition, estimates of remotely sensed snow
covered area can be biased by the presence of an overlying vegetation canopy.
Consequently,...
