2014 Map of Wainwright A-6 NE

About this map

Solivik Island and the thin barrier beaches of the Chukchi Sea define this coastal Arctic landscape. This 2014 survey captures a dynamic interface of water and low-lying land along the North Slope, where the massive Kasegaluk Lagoon is separated from the open sea by narrow strips of silt and sand. The interior is a complex network of thaw lakes and coastal marshes, punctuated by Avak Inlet in the southeast. This environment, detailed by the USGS, reflects a landscape shaped by seasonal ice and permafrost, illustrating the delicate geography of the Wainwright region before modern climate shifts further alter these shorelines.
