Description:
Abstract:
Elevation strongly influences temperature, soil moisture and patterns of tundra plant communities.  Landforms were grouped into the following classes for map display:

Hill or mountain: Includes undifferentiated hills and mountains of all slopes and sizes.  Includes moraines and kames.

Bluff or cliff: Very steep slopes usually associated with bedrock areas or eroded lake and river margins.

Basin: Refers primarily to colluvial basins (Kreig and Reger 1985), between hills usually filled with wetlands and broad watertracks.

Drained or filled lakes: Includes drained glacial kettle lakes in outwash deposits, drained glacial moraine-damned lakes such as the ancient Lake Galbraith, and filled lakes and pond margins.

Floodplain or floodplain terrace:  Includes active and nonactive floodplains and glaciofluvial outwash, ancient floodplains, also wide drainages filled with watertracks, abandoned sloughs, point bars, oxbows, etc.

Alluvial fan: Includes nearly flat alluvial fans associated with existing and ancient lakes and steep alluvial fans at the base of steep valleys that are products of debris flows.

Lake or pond 

Disturbed area: Includes gravel mines  and gravel construction pads.
Purpose:
Map of the landforms (elevations) in the Imnavait Creek grid for use by various projects.
