  13. In the Arctic, winter temperatures average about 30 degrees below zero Fahrenheit. The Arctic is the northernmost region in the world and includes the Arctic Ocean, polar ice caps, and continental land masses such as Greenland and the northernmost parts of Canada and Russia. This region is surrounded by an imaginary line called the Arctic Circle. In the summer, the sun doesn't set in the Arctic, so there is continuous daylight all season. The opposite is true in the winter, when it is dark 24 hours a day for many months. The Arctic's climate is harsh. There are no trees and few plants, but that doesn't mean the area isn't important. Scientists studying the Arctic are concerned about the receding, or melting, polar ice caps, as well as the ways global warming can impact the region. Native American peoples who live in this region include the Inuit, the Aleut, and the Yupik. Historically, few people have lived in the Arctic region, but it is home to polar bears and a diverse number of fish, marine mammals, and birds.
