Task 4. COLD CLIMATES
a. POLAR CLIMATE
It is located above the polar circles ( Arctic in the Northern hemisphere and Antarctic in the
Southern ) . Average temperature is around 0ºC and winters are long and hard with
temperatures between -10 ºC y -50ºC . There is no real summer and the warmest month
is under 10ºC
There are few precipitations (less than 300 mm per year) and they falls as snow.
Precipitations remain frozen due to low temperatures.
Polar landscape
It is characterized by perpetual ice . There is no vegetation due to the subsoil is always
frozen . Its fauna is adapted to the extreme cold like penguins, whales, seals and polar
bear.
There are areas , near temperate zones, with a short summer. In these areas ice is melted
and a little vegetation grows as grass and shrubs. Here can live animals like reindeer,
foxes and wolves. This climate is called Tundra.
So we can identify two different climates: PERPETUAL ICE AND TUNDRA
Fuente: Wikipedia
Human life in these areas is very difficult, only a few human beings as inuits or Sami can
live there.

Alpine or high mountain climate is the climate of the highest mountains ( Himalaya, Alps,
Andes, Rocky Mountains or Pyrenees ) His features are:
- Low temperatures in winter and cool in summer.
- Abundant precipitations ( as snow in winter)
- Temperatures decrease with altitude and precipitation increase if we go up .
Alpine landscape.
It is adapted to the cold winters. Vegetation change with:
a) Altitude. Vegetation is in tiers according to the temperatures and precipitations. There
are trees as oaks, chestnut or beech trees in lower levels ( deciduous forest) , conifers
in middle levels and meadows and little flowers in upper levels.
b) Insolation. Sunny slopes have more vegetation than shady slopes.
c) There is less vegetation in windy places.

Landscape of the world. Cold climates

  • 1. Task 4. COLD CLIMATES a. POLAR CLIMATE It is located above the polar circles ( Arctic in the Northern hemisphere and Antarctic in the Southern ) . Average temperature is around 0ºC and winters are long and hard with temperatures between -10 ºC y -50ºC . There is no real summer and the warmest month is under 10ºC There are few precipitations (less than 300 mm per year) and they falls as snow. Precipitations remain frozen due to low temperatures. Polar landscape It is characterized by perpetual ice . There is no vegetation due to the subsoil is always frozen . Its fauna is adapted to the extreme cold like penguins, whales, seals and polar bear. There are areas , near temperate zones, with a short summer. In these areas ice is melted and a little vegetation grows as grass and shrubs. Here can live animals like reindeer, foxes and wolves. This climate is called Tundra. So we can identify two different climates: PERPETUAL ICE AND TUNDRA Fuente: Wikipedia Human life in these areas is very difficult, only a few human beings as inuits or Sami can live there.

Alpine landscape. It is adapted to the cold winters. Vegetation change with: a) Altitude. Vegetation is in tiers according to the temperatures and precipitations. There are trees as oaks, chestnut or beech trees in lower levels ( deciduous forest) , conifers in middle levels and meadows and little flowers in upper levels. b) Insolation. Sunny slopes have more vegetation than shady slopes. c) There is less vegetation in windy places. EXERCISES 1. Read the sentences and identify the climate or the landscape. a.
