Parry Channel
The Parry Channel is a narrow waterway located in the Arctic region, specifically within the Canadian Arctic Archipelago. It separates the islands of Prince of Wales Island and Somerset Island and connects the Viscount Melville Sound to the Parry Sound. The channel is named after the British explorer William Edward Parry, who conducted significant explorations in the Arctic during the early 19th century.
This channel is an important part of the Arctic marine environment and serves as a route for navigation and research. It is characterized by its icy waters and rugged landscapes, which are home to various wildlife species. The Parry Channel also plays a role in understanding climate change impacts in the Arctic region.
