Frost tiling between Inuvik and Tuktoyaktuk. (Very slow convection brings rocks to the surface forming lines halfway between two convection rise-points. In computer science we call these lines the edges of Voronoi diagrams.)

Tuktoyaktuk and its pingo. (Over about a 3000-year cycle the pingo expands due to ice buildup inside, then splits, melts and becomes a circular lake.)
