Aroostook River (original) (raw)
The Aroostook River is a 112-mile-long (180 km) tributary of the Saint John River in the U.S. state of Maine and the Canadian province of New Brunswick. Its basin is the largest sub-drainage of the Saint John River. The name is derived from the Malecite name Wool-ahs-took, translated by Ganong as "good river for everything". It appears as Arassatuk (DeRozier, 1699).

| dbo:abstract | Der Aroostook River [əˈrʏstək] ist ein 180 km langer rechter Nebenfluss des Saint John River im US-Bundesstaat Maine und in der kanadischen Provinz New Brunswick. Der Aroostook River entsteht am Zusammenfluss von Munsungan Stream und Millinocket Stream im Penobscot County im Nordosten von Maine. Der Aroostook River fließt in östlicher und nordöstlicher Richtung durch das Aroostook County. Am Flusslauf liegen die Gemeinden Masardis, Ashland und Washburn sowie die Kleinstädte Presque Isle und Caribou. Größere Nebenflüsse sind Mooseleuk Stream, und von links sowie Saint Croix Stream, Scopan Stream und Presque Isle Stream von rechts. Der Aroostook River passiert noch die Gemeinde Fort Fairfield. Danach überquert er die Grenze nach Kanada und erreicht die Provinz New Brunswick, wo er nach 7,5 Kilometern in den Saint John River mündet. Die Region um den Aroostook River war in den Jahren 1838–1839 Schauplatz des Aroostook-Krieges. Dabei kam es zwischen den Vereinigten Staaten und dem Vereinigten Königreich von Großbritannien und Irland aufgrund von Grenzstreitigkeiten zu unblutigen Auseinandersetzungen.

(en) La rivière Aroostook (prononcer a-rou-stouk) est un cours d'eau prenant sa source dans l'état américain du Maine puis coule vers l'est avant de se déverser 225 kilomètres plus loin, dans la rive droite du fleuve Saint-Jean, dans la province canadienne du Nouveau-Brunswick. La rivière a donné son nom au comté d'Aroostook, à la ville d'Aroostook et à la Guerre d'Aroostook, conflit frontalier entre les États-Unis et le Royaume-Uni (1838-1839). (fr) Арустук (англ. Aroostook River) — река в штате Мэн и провинции Нью-Брансуик, приток реки Сент-Джон. Площадь водосборного бассейна — 5957 км². Длина реки составляет 225 км, практически полностью Арустук протекает по территории одноимённого округа. По площади бассейн, это крупнейший приток реки Сент-Джон. Река берёт начало в Аппалачах в округе Пенобскот у границы с округом Пискатакис, протекая по его территории всего несколько километров. Последние три километра Арустук течёт по канадской территории. Долина Арустука — один из важнейших районов выращивания картофеля. На реке часто случаются наводнения. (ru) O rio Aroostook é um afluente do rio Saint John. Nasce no Maine e desagua já em território do Canadá. Só uma pequena porção da sua bacia fica em território do Canadá. O rio deu nome ao condado de Aroostook, à cidade de Aroostook (no Canadá) e à guerra de Aroostook (1838-1839).
