High latitudes
All north latitudes more than 66.5 degrees are inside the Arctic Circle, i.e. between the Circle and the North Pole.
high latitudes
Parallel latitudes
The taiga biome is generally found between latitudes 50° and 65° N in the Northern Hemisphere, and 50° and 65° S in the Southern Hemisphere. This corresponds to regions like northern North America, Scandinavia, and parts of Siberia.
high latitudes
Those are the "polar" regions.
In The Middle Latitudes And The Arctic Circle (North America Is in the Tropic Of Cancer)
"High" latitudes. The equator has a latitude of zero. The area between the Tropic of Cancer (at 23.5 degrees north) and the Tropic of Capricorn (at 23.5 degrees south) are the "tropics" or low latitudes. The "polar regions" are above the Arctic Circle or below the Antarctic Circle, where the latitudes are higher than 66.5 degrees (north or south) are "high". The areas between the tropics and the arctic/antarctic are called "mid-latitudes or "temperate zones".
