  • Arctic Alaska or Far North Alaska is a region of the U.S. state of Alaska generally referring to the northern areas on or close to the Arctic Ocean. It commonly includes North Slope Borough, Northwest Arctic Borough, Nome Census Area, and is sometimes taken to include parts of the Yukon-Koyukuk Census Area. Some notable towns there include Prudhoe Bay, Utqiaġvik, Kotzebue, Nome and Galena. Most of these communities have no highways and can only be reached by aircraft or snowmobile in good weather. Originally inhabited by various Alaska Native groups living off hunting, whaling, or salmon fishing, modern settlement in Arctic Alaska was driven first by discoveries of gold and later on by the extraction of petroleum. The ecosystem consists largely of tundra covering mountain ranges and coastal plains which are home to bears, wolves, sheep, muskoxen, caribou, and numerous species of birds, the north coast has been defined as the Arctic coastal tundra ecoregion. Arctic Alaska is also the location of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, Gates of the Arctic National Park and Preserve, Kobuk Valley National Park and the National Petroleum Reserve–Alaska. The Arctic experiences midnight sun in the summer and polar night in the winter. (en)
  • El área de Alaska septentrional es una región estadounidense que abarca el norte del Estado desde el círculo polar ártico hasta el océano Ártico. La zona incluye los borough de North Slope, del Noroeste Ártico, área censal de Nome y parte del Yukón-Koyukuk. Sus principales localidades son Prudhoe Bay, Barrow, Kotzebue, Nome y Galena. La mayor parte de la región carece de autopistas, por lo que los únicos medios de transporte son las aeronaves y las motonieve, en ambos casos dependiendo del tiempo. Los ciudadanos de la zona subsisten gracias a la caza y a la pesca de ballenas y salmón entre otras especies marinas. El norte es además rico en oro y en extracciones de petróleo. En cuanto al ecosistema, el territorio es en su totalidad tundra formado por cordilleras y llanuras litorales que sirven de hábitat para osos, lobos, ovejas, bueyes, renos y diversas especies aviarias. El litoral septentrional está definido como una ecorregión de la Tundra Costera del Ártico. Otras reservas naturales son , el Parque nacional y reserva Puertas del Ártico y la Reserva Petrolífera de Alaska. (es)
