2016 Map of Melozitna D-6 SE

About this map

Nogoyakha Slough meanders across the northern reaches of this Alaskan interior landscape, defining a complex system of waterways and seasonal drainage within the Yukon-Koyukuk region. The terrain is characterized by a dense network of wetlands and small ponds, illustrating the intricate hydrology of the northern wilderness during the early twenty-first century. Surveyed for the township and range system, the area is divided between t6n r15e, t6n r16e, t5n r15e, t5n r16e, t4n r15e, and t4n r16e. This 2016 record provides a high-resolution view of the shifting water patterns and contours of the Melozitna basin before the impacts of changing arctic climates further alter the sub-surface permafrost and surface hydrology.
