WHAT IS A FRIGID ZONE?

The Earth has two Frigid Zones. The North Frigid Zone is located between the North Pole and the Arctic Circle. The South Frigid Zone is located between the South Pole and the Antarctic Circle. These places remain very cold throughout the year. This is because they receive the slanting rays of the Sun. The areas close to the poles are known as Polar Regions. Asia, Europe and North America lie around the North Pole. The Northern Frigid Zone comprise Northern Scandinavia, parts of northern Canada, Alaska, Russia and Greenland. Antarctica lies near the Southern Frigid Zone. Let us learn about one such Polar Region.
