Bp4-the artic climate

The artic is located in the noth pole .it is home to polar bears, ringed seals and walruses to name a just  a few animals. People also live in the artic, like Alaskans, Canadians, and Russians. The word artic comes from the Greek work artikos, which means "near the bear"
The artic is very important because scientist refer to the region as "the refrigerator to the world"
40 degrees F to 50 degrees F. There are no trees in the artic has a lot of sea ice, and on top of the sea ice is snow. Because the snow is white, the Sun's radiation is reflected and the heat is sent out to space. Any changes that occur in the artic effects the climates in the rest of the world.
                                                      
                                           Artic is drived from the Greek work arkitikos
 
Why is the artic important- artic climate is important because the artic acts as a refrigerator for the rest of the world.-the artic reflects more heat to space than it absorbs, which helps cool the planet.

                                        Icebergs,glacers, and ice shelves float in the ocean 

What is sea ice ? - icebergs, glaciers, and ice shelves float in the ocean but originate on land. Artic sea ice keeps the polar regions cool. And helps moderate the global climate. on the other hand , glaciers and icebergs originate on land, and are no considered sea ice. Because the earth, it's oceans and atmosphere are warming, sea ice is melting faster than ever in the history of the earth. The North Pole area has no land, and that's why the sea ice is important for bears because they walk and hunt on it.

There are many differents types of animas calling the artic home. These animals include: reindeer , polar bear, artic fox, Norwhal, walrus, seal, ox, moose, arca and slowly owl, orca.

Climate change and the artic - global warming is changing the lives of animals in the artic. For example, polar bears use sea ice to hunt and to move around the region.

New polar bear research -For the longest time scientists though climate change would make polar bears go into a "walking hibernation" that's not true, when bears cannot find food, thy starve, not go into a deep sleep. The researches found that one female bears swam 400 miles in nine days to find sea ice from which to hunt. The bears found, but lost 22% of its body fat and miscarred (lost her cub).
