What climate region lies south of the Arctic Circle and what are its characteristics?
The band between the Tropic of Cancer and the Arctic Circle is the North Temperate Zone. It is characterized on the whole by a temperate climate.
Which ocean is located north of 66.5N?
The Arctic Circle is at 66 degrees 32 minutes N latitude. Everything north of the Arctic circle is considered to be the Arctic.
If you are standing at 30 degrees north latitude you would be in which latitudinal geographic zone?
The latitude 30° N falls within the Northern Temperate Zone, which strecthes from the Tropic of Cancer to the Arctic Circle.The 5 major zones are :The North Frigid Zone, north of the Arctic CircleThe North Temperate Zone, between the Arctic Circle and the Tropic of CancerThe Torrid Zone, between the Tropics of Cancer and CapricornThe South Temperate Zone, between the Tropic of Capricorn and the Antarctic CircleThe South Frigid Zone, south of the Antarctic Circle
What is the definition a temperature zone?
Either of two intermediate latitude zones of the earth, the North Temperate Zone, between the Arctic Circle and the Tropic of Cancer, or the South Temperate Zone, between the Antarctic Circle and the Tropic of Capricorn.
What does Africa lies in the tropic zonemean?
The globe is commonly divided from north to south into five zones between the North Pole and the South Pole. From the North Pole to the Arctic Circle is the arctic zone. From the Arctic Circle to the Tropic of Cancer is the temperate zone. From the South Pole to the Antarctic Circle is the antarctic zone. From the Antarctic Circle to the Tropic of Capricorn is also the temperate zone. In the middle, from the Tropic of Cancer to the Tropic of Capricorn (with the Equator in the middle) is the tropic zone, or the Tropics. Most of Africa lies in this part of the world.
Which climate region lies just south of the Arctic Circle and what are its Characteristic?
The band between the Tropic of Cancer and the Arctic Circle is the North Temperate Zone. It is characterized on the whole by a temperate climate.
What is the temperate zone?
The temperate zone is the area between the polar areas and the equator.
Why do Ireland and the Arctic Circle and Iceland have temperate climates?
Ireland and Iceland are in a temperate zone, as they are between the Tropic of Capricorn and the Arctic Circle. So naturally they have temperate climates. The Arctic Circle itself is the start of a polar region, so inside of it is a frigid zone. Only the very edges of the Arctic Circle would have elements of a temperate climate, as the further you go in, the closer you are getting to the North Pole. Iceland itself is very close to, but just outside the Arctic Circle, but it also benefits from the Gulf Stream, bringing warmer waters to that area. Ireland benefits even more from that.
What are the three main climatic regions of the world and where do they occur?
The three major climate zones of the world are Polar, Temperate, and Tropical Zones.Polar is surrounding the North and South geographical regions, from the North Pole to the Arctic Circle, and the South Pole to the Antarctic Circle.The North Temperate Zone, lies between the Arctic Circle and the Tropic of Cancer, while the South Temperate Zone, lies between the Antarctic Circle and the Tropic of Capricorn.The Tropical Zone is from the Tropic of Cancer in the northern hemisphere, to the Tropic of Capricorn in the southern hemisphere, with the Equator in the middle.
