About this map

Hydrological patterns dominate this landscape on the North Slope, where the Chipp River meanders through a dense network of Arctic lakes and wetlands. The terrain is defined by the Public Land Survey System divisions of t13n r14w, t13n r13w, t12n r14w, and t12n r13w. These boundaries organize a territory characterized by thermokarst activity, where water bodies frequently shift and merge across the permafrost. The absence of named settlements or roads reflects the extremely remote nature of this portion of the Arctic coastal plain, primarily serving as a reference for environmental monitoring and indigenous land use.
