2014 Map of Shishmaref A-3 NE

USGS Topo · Published 2014

About this map

Sarichef Island stands at the boundary of the Chukchi Sea and the protected interior waters of the Seward Peninsula. This 2014 survey captures a shifting coastal landscape defined by the narrow barrier islands and the expansive Arctic Lagoon. The vital link to the outside world is represented by the Shishmaref Airport on the northern tip of the island, a critical infrastructure point for a community geographically isolated by the sea. The map also details the southern reaches of the Shishmaref Inlet, where tidal dynamics and seasonal ice shape the coastline near Egg Island. This coastal environment illustrates the delicate balance of life on the edge of the Arctic, where the sea is both a resource and a constant force of change.
