Toolik Lake

Toolik Lake as photographed in 2016. Toolik Field Station is seen on the left. Toolik Lake is an Arctic lake located within the North Slope Borough, Alaska. It is in a remote wilderness area managed by the Bureau of Land Management accessed by the Dalton Highway. It is south of Prudhoe Bay in the northern foothills of the Brooks Range. The name is derived from the Iñupiat word ''tutlik'', meaning yellow-billed loon.

Limnological studies of Toolik Lake began in the summer of 1975. Research is performed by organizations such as the Global Lake Ecological Observatory Network, Institute of Arctic Biology, International Tundra Experiment, National Ecological Observatory Network, and NASA. Nearly one-third of all Arctic research takes place within 50 km of either Toolik Lake or Abisko Scientific Research Station. Provided by Wikipedia
