Aupaluk ((イヌクティトゥット語:ᐊᐅᐸᓗᒃ)) (2011 Population 195) is a northern village in Nunavik, in the Nord-du-Québec region of Quebec. It is the least-populous Inuit community in Nunavik. The name means "where the earth is red", referring to its iron-bearing (ferruginous) soil. Its population has been increasing: it was 174 in 2006 and 159 in 2001. Aupaluk is located on the western shore of Ungava Bay, north of Tasiujaq and 80 km south of Kangirsuk. It is about 150 km northwest of Kuujjuaq. It is served by nearby Aupaluk Airport. The only school in Aupaluk, Tarsakallak School, was destroyed in a fire on March 15, 2014. The school served a total of 54 students. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Aupaluk」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
