The North American Arctic is composed of the northern polar regions of Alaska (USA), Northern Canada and Greenland. Major bodies of water include the Arctic Ocean, Hudson Bay, the Gulf of Alaska and North Atlantic Ocean. The North American Arctic lies above the Arctic Circle. It is part of the Arctic, which is the northernmost region on Earth. The western limit is the Seward Peninsula and the Bering Strait. The southern limit is the Arctic Circle latitude of 66° 33’N, which is the approximate limit of the midnight sun and the polar night.

Grandes corpos de água circundam a região como o Oceano Ártico, Baía de Hudson, Golfo do Alasca e Oceano Atlântico Norte. O limite oeste é a Península de Seward e o Estreito de Bering. O limite sul é o Círculo Polar Ártico nas latitudes 66° 33'N que é o limite aproximado do sol da meia-noite e as noites polares. (pt)

has abstract	La Nordamerika Arkto enhavas la nordajn partojn de Alasko (Usono), Kanado kaj Gronlando. Ĉefaj akvopartoj estas la Arkta Oceano, la Hudsona Golfo, la Golfo de Alasko kaj Norda Atlantika Oceano. La okcidenta limo estas la kaj la Beringa Markolo. La suda limo estas la Arkta Cirklo je latitudo 66° 33’ N, kiu estas la proksimuma limo de la Noktomeza suno kaj de la polusa nokto. Tiu regiono estas difinata per mediaj limoj, kie la averaĝa temperaturo por la plej varma monato (julio) estas sub 10 °C (50 °F). La plej norda arbolimo apenaŭ sekvas la izotermon ĉe la limo de tiu regiono. La areo havas tundron kaj polusan vegetaĵaron. (eo) The North American Arctic is composed of the northern polar regions of Alaska (USA), Northern Canada and Greenland. Major bodies of water include the Arctic Ocean, Hudson Bay, the Gulf of Alaska and North Atlantic Ocean. The North American Arctic lies above the Arctic Circle. It is part of the Arctic, which is the northernmost region on Earth. The western limit is the Seward Peninsula and the Bering Strait. The southern limit is the Arctic Circle latitude of 66° 33’N, which is the approximate limit of the midnight sun and the polar night. The Arctic region is defined by environmental limits where the average temperature for the warmest month (July) is below 10 °C (50 °F). The northernmost tree line roughly follows the isotherm at the boundary of this region. The climate of the region is known to be intensely cold during the year due to its extreme polar location. The area has tundra, Arctic vegetation, glaciers, and, for most of the year, is covered in thick blankets of snow and ice. It is home to various species of plants, and land, air and marine animals. Due to the severe weather conditions, the region's flora and fauna has had to adapt to survive. In addition to the extreme climate, permafrost and short growing seasons means that trees are unable to grow. The indigenous peoples who migrated from other lands and settled in the North American Arctic also had to adapt to living conditions. Their population has declined since then, however. Climate change in the Arctic has caused the region to feel the effects of global warming, with sea levels and temperatures rising, and a changing wildlife population. Marine ecosystems are struggling under increasing pressure from changes in sea ice characteristics. The effects of climate change have also impacted the human population whose way of living and working is facing pressure from the effects as they are finding it challenging to adapt.
