The Antarctic Ice Sheet consists of about 13.72 million sq km of permanent ice representing 90% of the world's ice.
According to Wikipedia, at the South Pole -- 90 degrees South Latitude, the ice is 9,301 feet thick -- that is, above sea level.
The North Pole, as it is an imaginary point on the Arctic Ice Cap, which floats on top of the Arctic Ocean.
The North Pole, which sits on the Arctic Ocean ice, is warmer by about 30 degrees F than the South Pole, which sits on an ice sheet that stores about 90% of the Earth's store of ice.
The South Pole, Antarctica, holds far more ice than the Arctic. Arctic ice floats on the ocean and is no more than one metre thick. Antarctic ice is a maximum of 4.7 kilometres deep at Terre Adélie.
There are many differences between the north and south poles. One difference is,the south pole is colder than the north pole. Another difference is, people live near the north pole and people can not live in the south pole. Another difference is that the south pole has more ice.
No. The South Pole sits on more than 9,300 feet of ice. There is no botany there.

The frozen water at the South Pole is fresh water ice.

The north pole contains the largest ice caps ;-)

They are both at separate ends of the world. The South Pole is land covered in ice and snow. The North Pole is thick ice sheets floating on the sea.
You can locate the North Pole on the Arctic Ocean sea ice.

Ice is one form of frozen water at the South Pole.
The South Pole is on the continent of Antarctica. Antarctica is an ice-covered landmass, with mountains..
