What else can I help you with?
In Asia there is a vast area of permanently frozen subsoil called?
permafrost. It is primarily found in the Arctic regions of Asia, such as Siberia and parts of Alaska, Canada, and Greenland. Permafrost plays a critical role in shaping the landscape and preserving ancient organic matter.
What is permanently frozen water called?
It is known as the permafrost.
What is below permafrost?
Below permafrost is below freezing temperature (0c)
Is permafrost good?
It is not so much that permafrost is good, as losing permafrost is bad. Permafrost keeps gases like carbon dioxide trapped within its frozen depths; when permafrost thaws, that gas is released, exacerbating global warming. Further, permafrost develops its own ecosystem which is destroyed when the permafrost is destroyed through thawing. The loss of all permafrost would mean the extinction of a lot of species.
In which region of north america would you expect to find permafrost?
Possibly Yellowstone or around mountain terrain areas in us or Canada,also i think there are some in the area of Niagara falls and the northen parts of canda around the Hudson bay

Where in the world can you find tundra?
Tundra can be found in regions near the Arctic Circle, such as parts of Alaska, Canada, Greenland, Scandinavia, and Russia. It is characterized by its cold climate, low-growing vegetation, and permafrost.

Which Biome contains mostly frozen soil call permafrost?
The answer is tundra.Permafrost is permanently frozen ground, a common feature in the high latitudes, mostly in the tundra biome.Climate changes can expand or reduce the areas affected by permafrost, which currently includes the Arctic lands in Canada, Greenland, Scandinavia, and Russia. However, some areas have a thin layer of soil at the surface that can thaw during the summer. This is called an active layer, and can be boggy because melt water cannot drain into the underlying permafrost.
What is the Greenland effect?
The Greenland effect is a term used to describe the amplification of climate change in the Arctic region, particularly in Greenland, due to various feedback mechanisms. These mechanisms include the melting of ice leading to reduced reflectivity (albedo effect) and the release of greenhouse gases trapped in permafrost. The rapid warming and environmental changes in Greenland have global implications for sea level rise and weather patterns.
