How many hours of sun light does the tundra get a day?
Now, as for sunlight, that depends on latitude. The higher the latitude, the further north and south, the longer the day in summer, and the shorter the night. Above the arctic and antarctic circles, the sun does not set for at least 1 night in summer and does not rise for at least 1 day in winter. As you continue further north and south toward the poles, the number of nights in summer without sunset and the number of days in winter without sunrise increases. It does not go completely black as for an hour or so before and after sunrise and sunset, there is still light in the sky, twilight, so even if there is no sunrise, the day DOES brighten until the local noon and is darkest at local midnight....

In winter, Australia is warmer as you travel further north. In summer, southern heat can be just as extreme as northern heat, and even more so due to the absence of humidity. In summer, the further north you travel, the more humid it becomes, but the heat is more constant, compared to the more erratic hot-cold weather of the south. Heatwaves and bushfires are more prevalent in the south during summer, not the north.
