What Does TACT Stand For?

TACT stands for Trans Alaska Crustal Transect

TACT, or Trans Alaska Crustal Transect, is a comprehensive geological project designed to study the crustal structure and tectonic processes along a transect across Alaska. By integrating seismic, geologic, and geophysical data, TACT aims to enhance our understanding of the region's complex geological framework, contributing valuable insights into seismic hazards, natural resource management, and the evolution of the North American tectonic boundary.
