2015 Map of Meade River C-1 NW

USGS Topo · Published 2015

About this map

Meade River defines the western edge of this Arctic landscape, cutting a winding path through the North Slope's complex network of thermokarst lakes and wetlands. This 2015 survey, produced from Spot imagery and National Hydrography Dataset data, illustrates a terrain dominated by water and shifting permafrost patterns rather than human infrastructure. The lack of roads or established settlements across the townships of t16n r18w and t15n r18w underscores the region's character as a modern wilderness. Researchers and environmental historians can examine the precise shapes and orientations of these myriad lakes, which serve as indicators of the specialized geology and hydrology within the Alaska-North Slope Borough.
