黄刀镇(英语:Yellowknife),也译作黄刀镇、黄刀市,是加拿大西北地区的首府。根据2021年加拿大人口普查,该市人口有大概20,000人,差不多占了整个西北地区一半的人口。[1][2]
地理
[编辑]黄刀镇位处北极圈以南约400公里,大奴湖畔。湖的外围还围着许多湖。黄刀镇位在北纬62.5度,被北极光椭圆环带覆盖,加上地势平坦,没有山脉阻隔,极容易见到极光。
由于近北极圈,黄刀镇植被较稀疏,主要有桦树和云杉。另还有不少外露岩石披满地衣。
气候
[编辑]黄刀镇基本上属亚寒带气候,全年的降雨量少于300 mm(12英寸),主因是受到西边的山脉所影响。冬天气温可达摄氏零下几十度,但夏季气温则最高曾达32.6 °C(90.7 °F)。

历史
[编辑]早于加拿大联邦成立时,包括黄刀镇在内的西北地方,已经是加拿大联邦一部分。当时此一带已有一些原住民在此居住。后来淘金热,大量加拿大东部的人们前来在西北地区找寻金矿,并相继发现了黄金。于1936年,第一批居民在黄刀镇定居。
