The North Pole is situated in the Arctic Ocean, where the temperature is never warm enough to melt the thick sea ice that freezes much of the year.
No. The North Pole is located on a floating polar ice cap.
If you were at the North Pole, you would be standing on sea ice floating on the Arctic Ocean. Beneath the sea ice at the North Pole is thousands of feet of water.
There are no cities at the North Pole. The Arctic is a huge area of floating ice.
The North Pole sits on a floating ice sheet which is called the Arctic ice sheet. There is no land underneath it, but the sea depth at the North Pole has been measured at 4,261 metres (13,980 ft). Because of this, the North Pole is incapable of supporting any plant or animal life on it.
There are glaciers in the Arctic, but the North Pole itself is not glaciated. This is because, by their very definition, glaciers are regions of fresh water ice on land, and quite different to sea ice. The North Pole itself does not lie on any land mass, but on a floating ice sheet known as the Greenland or Arctic ice sheet - therefore, there can be no glaciers on the North Pole.
The North Pole sits on a floating ice sheet which is called the Arctic ice sheet.

No, The North Pole is an imaginary point on a floating ice sheet in the Arctic Ocean.

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.
A large piece of ice that covers land is called an Ice Sheet.
