  Ungava Bay - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ungava Bay (French: baie d'Ungava) is a large bay in northeastern Canada separating Nunavik (far northern Québec) from Baffin Island.
Due to the influence of the Labrador Current, summers are too cold for tree growth and all the land surrounding the bay is treeless tundra.
Ungava Bay is surrounded by numerous Inuit villages, the largest of which is Kuujjuaq at the mouth of the Koksoak River.

 Ungava - LoveToKnow 1911
Along Hudson Bay shore there is a strip of similar rocks, and a long row of small islands of the same age, with great sheets of trap or diabase forming the tops of the hills.
There is evidence that Ungava, like the rest of Labrador, has risen several hundred feet since the Ice Age, marine beaches being found up to 700 ft. on the Hudson Bay side; and it is interesting to find seals like those of the adjoining seacoasts in the Seal Lakes too m.
Owing to its northerly position a large part of Ungava is treeless, and belongs to the barren grounds where caribou roam and feed on the socalled caribou moss, a greyish lichen.

 Ungava Inuit
Ungava Inuit (New Québec Inuit) live along the shores of Ungava Bay, on the south shore of HUDSON STRAIT and on the eastern coast of HUDSON BAY.
The term Ungava, meaning "towards the open water," was used to designate the Inuit band established at the mouth of the Arnaud (Payne) River.
Among the first Inuit in Canada to establish permanent contacts with Europeans, the Ungava were also the first to take charge of the administration and management of their development through INUIT CO-OPERATIVES and the JAMES BAY AGREEMENT; they also became renowned for the fine quality and abundance of their contemporary art (see INUIT ART).

 A Breeding Pair Survey Of Canada Geese In Northern Quebec
The estimated number of breeding pairs on the Ungava Peninsula (regions 1,2, and 3) in 2003 (156,937 pairs) was similar to the 2002 estimate of 164,840 pairs (P = 0.653) (Table 2, Figure 2).
From 1993-2000, the estimated density of breeding pairs was similar in the Hudson and Ungava Bay coastal zones (Figure 3), although density along Hudson Bay tended to be slightly higher.
The percentage of indicated pairs observed as singles was similar in the coastal zones along Ungava Bay (57%) and Hudson Bay (55%) in 2003 (Figure 4).

 Ungava, A Tale Of Esquimau Land by R.M. Ballantyne : Arthur's Classic Novels
Ungava A Tale Of Esquimau Land By R. Ballantyne Ward1 Lock and Co., Limited London And Melbourne This etext was prepared by Arthur Wendover from an London Edition published sometime before 1939.
It was thought that the remote solitudes of Ungava Bay, at the extreme north of Labrador -- where the white man's axe had never yet felled the stunted pines of the north, nor the ring of his rifle disturbed its echoes -- would be the spot best suited for the erection of a wooden fort.
The entire population of Moose Fort was assembled on the beach to witness the departure of the expedition.
