As attractive as it is informative, this map is a must-have for those interested in the dramatic and remote Arctic. Published in February 1983, this map accompanied a supplemental "Peoples of the Arctic" map and four articles. Of particular interest is the abundance of historical and geographical notes. The 1983 Arctic Ocean map features:
• Historical notes including information on expeditions and explorers routes
• Boundary showing limit of wooded country
• Southern limit of sea ice
• Ocean bathymetry, cold currents, warm currents, and prevailing winds
• Geographical features including mountains, rivers, lakes, swamps, and glaciers
• Scheduled air service
Coverage Area: Arctic Ocean, northern Soviet Union, Alaska, northern Canada, Greenland, Iceland, Sweden, Finland, Norway
