Ice
is found at high latitudes
in both hemispheres but
because of their physical dissimilarities
the climatic and ice regimes
of the Arctic and Antarctic regions
differ greatly.

Arctic Region :
• is confined to sea areas
off E and W coasts of Greenland
and
• off eastern seaboard of Canada• remains completely coered by pac! ice
throughout the year

• "ne is (AC ICE9 *hich is reasonably free to moe under
the action of the *ind and current.
• 5he other is 7A+5 ICE *hich does not moe. Ice first forms near the coast and spreads sea*ards. A certain *idth of fairly
leel ice9 depending on the depth of the *ater9 becomes fast
to the coastline and is immobile.5he outer edge of the fast ice
is often located in the icinity of the )&-metre contour.
A reason for this is that *ell-hummoc!ed and ridged ice may
ground in these depths and so form off-shore anchor points
