The upland areas varied considerably, also: south of Chandalar, that is south of the tree line, uplands had a mixture of [illegible] species dominated by Picea glauca or Alnus, with the understory varying according to water condition. In the Brooks Range uplands tended to be fellfield exposed vegetation, usually prostrate shrubs, lichens, Arctostaphylos, tendra, etc. Foothill uplands were [illegible], varying (wet → dry) from a Carex bigelowii, Betula nana, Vaccinium v.-i. tussock to clastic Eriophorum vaginatum.

Nevertheless they showed a consistent pattern of differentiation from lowland sites, covered with dry
