Mackenzie Distributaries

Mackenzie Distributaries. Illustration of a complex network of meandering, branching river channels. The rivers are shown in dark blue, with colours ranging from light blue to white away from the channels. Lighter colours denote elevations that are higher than the nearest river channel.
Mackenzie Distributaries: Relative Elevation Model (REM) of some (dis)tributaries of the Mackenzie river, not that far from Inuvik. Tried using the RiverREM package, but found more success following/adapting this tutorial. ~7 km across and ~10 km tall—probably should have included a scalebar.
