SPECIALTIES:

   
 

Geologic mapping, Pacific Northwest geology, Cordilleran tectonics, GIS, digital elevation model (DEM) assessment and development, and surface (geomorphic) mapping.

   
 

CURRENT WORK:

 

Ralph's current work includes

   
 

* Mapping the geology of Bainbridge Island and the Suquamish area, west of Seattle

 

* Mapping landscape surfaces (geomorphology) throughout the Salish Lowland

 

* Helping upgrade the regional elevation data set for the Salish Lowland via participation in the Seattle Area Natural Hazards initiative , the Puget Sound LIDAR Consortium, and collaborative work with UW colleagues.

 

* Completing 1:100,000 and smaller scale maps of the North Cascades, with Rowland Tabor

 

* Compiling 1995-1999 field work in the Bellingham 30x60-minute quadrangle at 1:100,000 scale

 

* Collaborating on GIS aspects of the GeoMapNW, with Elizabeth Barnett, Derek Booth, and Kathy Troost.

 

* Providing regional geology expertise to earthquake hazards investigations in western Washington, collaborating with other USGS staff, WaDGER staff and the Pacific Northwest Seismograph Network.

 

* Working with Elizabeth Barnett, Karen Meagher, Craig Weaver (all USGS) and Don Ballantyne (EQE Inc.) on lifelines maps for the I-5 corridor.

 

* Investigating the paleogeography of the northwestern Cordillera (North Cascades and western British Columbia) with Brian Mahoney (University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire) and Randy Enkin (Geological Survey of Canada)
