The polar regions of the magnetosphere is where the Auroras form. Aurora Borealis (Northern Lights) at the North Pole, and Aurora Australis (Southern Lights) at the South Pole. These Auroras form when highly charged particals from coronal mass ejections (CME's) collide with oxygen and nitrogen in the upper atmosphere and raise the energy levels of the two aforementioned elements.

∙ 12y agopolar lands are usually located in the southern and northern areas such as the arctic , and the Antarctic these places are usually cold, windy, and dry but if you can with stand cold, windy, and dry places then you could probably live in a polar land. scientists stay in polar lands for months on end just to find a cure or an unusual species of an animal.

Why are earth's polar regions never very warm?
Earth's polar regions are the areas of the globe surrounding the poles also known..part of what little sunlight the Polar regions receive, contributing to the cold.
Why does solar energy reach the equatorial regions more than the polar regions?
Because the sun hits more directly at the equator. More sunlight is reflected off from the polar regions, and so less sunlight hits in the polar regions. NO! The sun's rays strike the polar regions at a lower angle, therefore delivering the same amount of energy, but spreading it over a greater area. This is what causes lower temperatures in the polar regions.
How cold can the polar regions get?
the polar regions can drop to temperatures exceeding -30 degrees so it is definatly below freezing.
Why do hurricanes form in polar regions?
Well, they don't, actually. Hurricanes form in the more tropical regions, never the polar regions. Reason for that is basically there is more moisture in the atmosphere than in the polar regions. For a better explanation, please see the related question below.
What is the rising of regions of earths crust?
uplift
Why do ice cores taken from polar regions contain much older information about earths climate than icecores taken from mountaintops?
Because the snow is very compressed in the polar regions
Is the thickness of earth atmosphere the same in polar regions as equatorial regions?
Yes, the thickness varies from te equatoral to the polar regions due to the Earth's rotation. The atmosphere is thicker at the equator than the poles. this is due to the earths rotation and centripital force.
why are polar regions colder then tropical?
Tropical regions are cooler , polar regions are colder
What is now located in polar regions?
The polar ice caps are only located in polar regions.
How do you use polar regions in a sentence?
Many explorers have expired in the polar regions. Let's dress warmly for our expeditions to the polar regions! Let's be sure to take along a sled dog team to the polar regions!
What is now only located in polar regions?
The polar ice caps are only located in polar regions.
Which areas is least populated due to insufficient rainfall?
polar regions
Which two climatic regions does Alaska have?
Alaska's two climatic regions includes the polar and sub-polar regions. The polar and sub-polar region includes freezing and frigid temperatures.
Why are polar regions cooler than equatorial regions?
The polar regions get the least amount of warming rays from the Sun.
Why elephants cannot live in desert or polar regions?
Because there is no water in polar regions
why is food so scarce in the polar regions?
food is scarce in polar regions because polar regions are mostly covered with ice so because of ice and the cold weather people cannot sell or buy things. that is why food is scarce in polar regions.
What are some animals from polar regions?
polar bears
