2016 Map of Noatak A-2 SW

USGS Topo · Published 2016

About this map

Cape Krusenstern National Monument dominates this arctic coastal landscape, where the northernmost reaches of the Seward Peninsula meet the Chukchi Sea. The map highlights the shifting geomorphology of the shoreline, specifically the elongated Sheshalik Spit which acts as a natural barrier for the waters of Kotzebue Sound. This transition zone between the marine environment and the interior tundra is characterized by a complex network of seasonal wetlands and small ponds, reflecting the permafrost-driven hydrology of the region. The grid of the public land survey system, including townships t20n r19w and t19n r20w, provides a sparse human overlay on a terrain primarily defined by natural coastal processes and federally protected lands.
