Is there a night in northern Asia?

The area crossed by the circle of latitude at 66 degrees 34 minutes north latitude (that is, the Arctic Circle) will have a polar night on December 21, and the duration of the polar night is proportional to the proportion of the latitude higher than this latitude coil, and the beginning time of the polar night is also related to it, and the polar night in the area just crossed by the Arctic Circle (the latitude coil of 66 degrees 34 minutes north latitude) begins on December 20-21 and ends on December 21-22, and only one day of polar night phenomenon occurs. At the same time, I would like to correct you: Asia and Europe are completely the same continent, otherwise how could the country of Russia not be cut into two different continents?

Russia's northernmost border, whether in Europe or Asia, is at about 82 degrees north latitude.

The northernmost border of the European part of Russia: Franz Josef Land Archipelago The northernmost cape of the uppermost island, about 82 degrees north latitude.

The northernmost state border of the Asian part of Russia: Severdalya Zemlya The northernmost cape of the topmost island, also about 82 degrees north latitude.

At such latitudes, the polar night lasts for about 140-145 days, and the polar day lasts about the same length, totaling about 280-290 days per year. For example, the latitude is higher than the Arctic Circle, but it is not an extremely high latitude, such as the northernmost point of Alaska in the United States, Barrow, 71 degrees north latitude, the polar night lasts less than 60 days, compared with the Russian North-Zemlya Islands and the Franz Josef Land Islands, it is much southerly, about 11 degrees lower, and the total time without normal day-night alternation every year is 170-180 days less than that of the North-Zemlya Islands and the Franz Josef Land Islands. The duration of the polar night increased exponentially.

In places as high as 82 degrees north latitude, such as the Franz Josef Land and North-Zemlya Islands in Russia, the polar night begins at the beginning of October after the autumnal equinox and ends before the spring equinox in April.

Since Russia is a country that straddles the Eurasian continent and spans nearly half the world, and at the same time has the largest area in the Arctic Circle, do you say that there is a polar night in northern Asia?

The equator, the Arctic Circle, and the Tropic of Cancer all pass through Asia, the continent with the widest latitude spanning latitudes in the world. In northern Asia, the only word is the Arctic Circle. The Arctic Circle is the boundary between the boreal zone and the north temperate zone, and its latitude value is 66°34 north latitude', and the yellow and red angles are interconnected, and most of the inner part is the Arctic Ocean.

The Arctic Circle encompasses Greenland, Northern Europe and northern Russia, as well as northern Canada. There are many islands in the Arctic Circle, the largest being Greenland. Due to the severe cold, there are relatively few species of life in the Arctic Ocean region.

The plants are mainly lichens and mosses, the trees are scarce, and the famous animals include polar bears, seals, whales, etc.
