2014 Map of Noatak D-6 SW

USGS Topo · Published 2014

About this map

The Chukchi Sea coastline in the Northwest Arctic Borough is defined by an intricate network of lagoons and coastal drainages. This 2014 survey captures a shifting landscape of water and silt, where the Asikpak River feeds into several distinct coastal basins, including Asikpak Lagoon and Sivgu Lagoon. The geography here is notably low-lying, punctuated by Pingau Hill, which serves as a rare high point in a territory dominated by estuaries and tundra. Further north, Kavrorak Lagoon and its associated Kavrorak Springs indicate the presence of significant freshwater inputs into the saltwater system. To the south, the map traces the upper reaches of Kivalina Lagoon, illustrating the continuous barrier-island and lagoon formations that characterize this stretch of the Alaskan Arctic coast.
