How cold is the Arctic? Please, 3Q

I heard that the Arctic is getting warmer now. And by 2040, all the snow in the Arctic will melt. How many creatures are there in the North Pole?Go see for yourself. Hey, hey, hey.

The average temperature in January in the Arctic ranges from -40 to 0, and the minimum temperature can drop below -50 in most parts of winter. The average temperature in July ranges from -10 to 10, with summer highs of more than 30 in some areas.

The extreme maximum temperature in Antarctica is above zero degrees Celsius, and the extreme minimum temperature is minus degrees Celsius. Antarctica's climate is generally colder than the Arctic at the same latitude, making it the coldest region in the world. The climate in the Antarctic Circle is cold all year round, and the polar night and polar day can be up to half a year.

The Arctic climate is characterized by long, cold winters and short, cool summers. The climate change in the Arctic is diverse, but extreme changes in sunshine occur in both winter and summer. Some areas are covered with snow and ice all year round (sea ice, glaciers or snow), and most areas have snow and ice on the surface for most of the year.

The South Pole is colder than the North Pole.

The reason is that Antarctica is land, and the North Pole is the ocean – the Arctic Ocean. The South Pole in winter is colder than the North Pole in winter, which is the most important reason for the temperature difference between the two levels, due to the small specific heat of the land, which warms up and cools down quickly.

Antarctica is an ice continent surrounded by the sea, surrounded by vast Antarctic snowfields, on which strong storms blow throughout the year, and the thick ice layer does not melt all year round. Most of the solar radiation is reflected back by the snow that is permanently present in Antarctica, so the Antarctic continent is largely unable to retain the sun's radiant energy.

The Arctic is generally considered to be cold, but the Antarctic is actually colder than the Arctic. Because the South Pole has a shorter direct sunlight than the North Pole, it is at apogee during the revolution. It's farther away from the sun. I also don't know a lot, maybe I can't say it clearly, and then please understand someone.

At the same latitude, the land temperature is low in winter and the ocean temperature is high. x0d x0a The South Pole is a continent and the North Pole is an ocean. So it's colder in Antarctica.

The first is the question of the angle at which the sunlight hits.

Since the earth is tilted, the angle of sunlight hitting the poles is large, which makes the unit area receive less sunlight resulting in no heat, so it is cold.

The second is the polar night problem.

It is also the above reasons that cause the polar night phenomenon in the North and South Poles, that is, there is no sun at all for the whole day. It's winter.

White glaciers are also a factor.

You yourself say it's cold in the Arctic.

The Arctic receives very little direct sunlight throughout the year, so there is less heat, the temperature is lower, and you know that the closer you get to the equator, the higher the temperature, and the further you go to the poles, the cooler it gets.
