2016 Map of Bering Glacier A-7 SW

About this map

Beringia Novaya sits at the edge of a dynamic coastal landscape where the glacial influence meets the sea. This 2016 survey highlights a complex network of wetlands and shifting hydrology, dominated by the meandering course of the Seal River. The river flows south through several channels, eventually meeting the open waters of the Gulf of Alaska. The terrain is characterized by intricate elevation contours that reveal the subtle rises and depressions typical of this glacial outwash region, providing an essential record of the shoreline and interior drainage patterns before further natural shifts occur. This map is particularly valuable for researchers tracking coastal changes and the specific layout of the local landscape in the early 21st century.
