2016 Map of Selawik D-5 NW

About this map

Melvin Channel and Eavok Channel dominate the southern portion of this landscape, forming a complex network of waterways typical of the delta environments in the Northwest Arctic. These low-lying wetlands are punctuated by significant water bodies such as Ekichuk Lake and Potonie Lake near the western edge. The drainage pattern is further defined by Amadouk Creek, which meanders through the northern sections. This 2016 survey illustrates a largely uninhabited wilderness where the hydrography is the primary defining characteristic of the terrain, providing essential data for understanding the shifting channels and seasonal floodplains of the region's vast river systems.
