The Antarctic continent covers all latitudes south of roughly 75° South, and all longitudes.
The longitude of Antarctica varies because it is a large continent. The coordinates for the South Pole, which is located in Antarctica, are approximately 0 degrees longitude, as it is where all lines of longitude converge.
The Antarctic Desert covers nearly the entire continent of Antarctica.The continent of Antarctica is all considered a desert, with the limited exception of the Antarctic Peninsula.
The ice sheet that you mention covers 98% of the Antarctic continent, and it covers both areas you name.
The largest desert in the world is the Antarctic Desert which covers nearly all of the Antarctic continent.
The largest desert in the world is the Antarctic Desert which covers nearly all of the Antarctic continent.
The Antarctic ice sheet covers 98% of the continent, contains about 90% of earth's ice and 70% of the earth's fresh water.
As Antarctica is located at one of the poles, it covers every line of longitude; the only one of the continents to do do.
Any line all the way around the Earth covers 360 degrees of longitude.
The ice sheet you're thinking of covers 98% of the continent.
The largest desert is the Antarctic Desert which covers most of Antarctica.
The distance represented by one degree of longitude varies according to distance from the equator. That's because the meridians of longitude are equally distributed around the equator but all converge to a single point at the north and south poles. The greatest distance between any two meridians of longitude, then, is the distance between the points where they cross the equator. Along the equator, one degree of longitude covers about 111.1 kilometers.
