Zusammenfassung:•Corrosion and microstructure characterized a fatigue initiation sites in AA7050.•No independent correlation between individual features and initiation locations.•Strongly suggests a coupled interaction of features governs the initiation behavior. The fatigue resistance of aerospace structures is degraded by the presence of corrosion damage. This work characterizes the micro-scale (
