Redwood National and State Parks: Geologic resources inventory report


World Heritage Site: Redwood National and State Parks

Publication Year: 2021

Publication Type: Report

Publication Identifier: WHE90E6029350

Summary

Redwood National and State Parks' geologic landscape spans 200 million years, from the Jurassic Period to the present. The Geologic Resources Inventory (GRI) report synthesizes data from scoping meetings in 2004 and 2019, delivering two key GIS datasets: one for geology and another for geohazards. These datasets, available on the NPS GRI publications website, provide critical information for park management, visitor safety, infrastructure planning, and resource preservation. The report includes a geologic map poster and simplified maps illustrating major features, alongside a geologic time scale to contextualize the parks' complex history. Specialized terms are defined at first mention, ensuring accessibility for both academic and general audiences.
