Preston, T.M., Pierce, K.L., Tjahjana, K.J., Martinez Torres, J., and Schlademan, M.K., 2023, Ken Pierce's Legacy Field Notebooks and Annotated Aerial Photographs, Geological, and Topographical Maps from Across the Western United States (ver. 2.0, January 2024): U.S. Geological Survey data release, https://doi.org/10.5066/P91WVUXO.
Summary
Ken Pierce was a Research Geologist with the U.S. Geological Survey for over 55 years and authored numerous scientific papers, geologic maps, and field trip guides. This data release contains digital scans of 64 field notebooks 713 annotated aerial photographs, and 640 annotated geologic and topographic maps authored or annotated by Ken Pierce or his collaborators. Information contained in these notebooks, aerial photographs, and maps provide much of the underpinning of Ken Pierce's research, which focused largely on the glacial and geomorphological history of Yellowstone National Park and surrounding areas.
