"The Alaska Peninsula and Aleutian Islands form one of the conspicuously arcuate lines of volcanoes that border the Pacific Ocean. The name Aleutian Range is applied to this 1,600 mile long, narrow belt of peaks reaching from Mount Spurr opposite Anchorage to the island of Attu, close to the continent of Asia."

An assessment of volcanic threat and monitoring capabilities in the United States: framework for a National Volcano Early Warning System NVEWS 4059
citation image
"NVEWS - a National Volcano Early Warning System - is being formulated by the Consortium of U.S. Volcano Observatories (CUSVO) to establish a proactive, fully integrated, national-scale monitoring effort that ensures the most threatening volcanoes in the United States are properly monitored in advance of the onset of unrest and at levels commensurate with the threats posed. Volcanic threat is the combination of hazards (the destructive natural phenomena produced by a volcano) and exposure (people and property at risk from the hazards)."

Magnesian andesite in the western Aleutian Komandorsky region: implications for slab melting and processes in the mantle wedge 2209
citation image
The role of the subducting lithospheric slab in the genesis of mantle-derived (primitive) magmas is investigated through a study of volcanic rocks formed in the tectonically strike-slip–dominated western Aleutian arc. Two types of chemically and petrologically distinctive primitive andesites have been found among the Miocene– late Pleistocene–age volcanic rocks in the western Aleutians.

Paleogene sedimentary and volcanogenic rocks from Adak Island, central Aleutian Islands, Alaska 1807
citation image
"Here we present information on the petrology, mineralogy, stratigraphy, and depositional environments of the Andrew Lake Formation and the sedimentary and pyroclastic rocks at and near Wedge Point. We also assess the potential of these rocks as sources of hydrocarbons. We define mineral assemblages formed by hydrothermal processes as distinguished from assemblages developed by regional low-grade metamorphism. We speculate on the significance of the Paleocene history of Adak Island in the regional development of the Aleutian island arc and the early Tertiary plate-tectonic interaction of the Kula ridge with the Aleutian subduction zone."

Past volcanic activity in the Aleutian arc 3474
citation image
"The borders of the Pacific Ocean are studded with volcanoes and the products of volcanic activity. The volcanoes are arranged in crudely arc-shaped groups, and most of the arcs are conves toward the ocean. In addition to the bordering arcs, the Pacific contains many individual volcanic islands and a few non-arcuate groups of volcanic islands, like the Hawaiian Islands. The curving chain of volcanoes from Kiska Island near the western end of the Aleutian Islands to Mt. Spurr on the mainland constitutes one of the Pacific volcanic arcs. This report is concerned with the past activity of the volcanoes of this arc, herein called the Aleutian arc."

The geology, geochemistry and petrology of the recent magmatic phase of the central and western Aleutian Arc 1997
citation image
The Aleutian Islands and northern Pacific were among the last regions on earth visited by Europeans. Most early explorations were by officials of the Russian government, independent fur traders, and officials of the Russian American Company. Consequently, reports of these early expeditions are in obscure Russian (or German) publications. After the United States purchased Alaska in 1867, exploration and surveying was conducted by various government agencies, chiefly the U.S. Coast Survey and the Coast and Geodetic Survey.
