Image Location Ungava Peninsula.png thumb Location of the Ungava Peninsula The Ungava Peninsula of Nunavik , Quebec , Canada , is bounded by Hudson Bay to the west, Hudson Strait to the north, and UngavaBay to the east. The Ungava Peninsula is part of the Labrador Peninsula and covers about 252,000 km 97,000 sq mi . Its northern most point is Cape Wolstenholme , which is also the northern most point of Quebec.

The peninsula was not deglaciated until 6,500 years ago 11,500 years after the Last Glacial Maximum and is believed to have been the prehistoric centre from which the vast Laurentide Ice Sheet spread over most of North America during the last glacial epoch.

Hume , Nushagak Bay, 1900 Nushagak Bay is a large estuary covering over 100 km sup 2 sup in southwest part of the U.S. state of Alaska . It opens to Bristol Bay , a large body of water in the eastern Bering Sea north of the Alaska Peninsula . It is home to the area s largest city, Dillingham, Alaska Dillingham , and the bay hosts one of the world s last great sustainable sockeye salmon fisheries. Bristol Bay residents have historically valued the estuary resources for both subsistence gains and commercial profits. However, given the estuary s importance, there have been few comprehensive scientific studies conducted in the bay. Species diversity as measured through richness and total biomass is generally low with 16 macro invertebrate species encountered in a 2007 field study, including teleost fishes, isopods, amphipods, and crangon shrimps. During the summer 2007, Nushagak Bay was found to have a Shannon Diversity H value of 1.54, ranking it below similar subarctic estuaries such as UngavaBay, near Labrador 60 34 N, 67 35 W and Lower Herring Bay in Price William Sound 60 30 N, 147 13 W where the Shannon Diversity values are H 2.11 and H 2.5, respectively. This lower diversity of Nushagak Bay is most likely due to its low salinity, high turbidity, and silty sediments. Nushagak Bay is downstream of the proposed Pebble Mine , whose tailings storage lake would sit at the headwaters of the Koktuli River , one of the Nushagak River s tributaries. Villages on the Nushagak are among the major opponents of the proposal. The bay runs primarily north south from the mouth of the Nushagak River to Bristol Bay some 30 miles 48 km southward.
