Arctic and Alpine Soils Proposal (Ant)arctic (high-latitude) and alpine (mountain) areas are affected by relatively similar climates, as latitude and altitude produce similar meteorologic effects. In these geographic regions where temperature is at such a pronounced extreme, climate would seem to be the leading factor of soil development. It is my goal in this research paper to answer the following question: How do the soils of arctic and alpine areas differ? This idea, taken largely from an

Polar bears are not just the face of Coca Cola but they are the largest living land carnivores. Polar bears live in the Arctic, they live in low temperature and where high ice content is present. Polar bears are built to survive in those habitat they have webbed paws that help them swim, strong teeth, and a thick fur coat to keep them warm (defender.org). Polar bears are considered endangered-species, there current conservation status is vulnerable the polar bear population is decreasing. Polar bears

n the book, Seekers Great Bear Lake, Erin Hunter tells a story of three young bears-one black, polar, and grizzly-and a puzzling shape-shifting bear each are following a path towards a mystical destination. But then encounter the divine Great Bear Lake. Together the four bears help each other to survive the harsh attacks from other aggressive bears and the scarcity of food they find among the wild. Later on, the three bears separated to go to their own sleuths, but soon after they separated they

Global Management As polar bears inhabit the Arctic regions of five separate nations, it is important to examine the different nation specific management plans in place for conservation of the species. By examining the various management plans in place, a comprehensive look into polar bear management of the species on a global level may be achieved. Of the five nations with polar bear populations, the three largest have some form of a national management plan in place. However, in all five nations

acidic soil. There are a variety of organisms that inhabit this region. The most common tree species, all deciduous, are the white birch, dwarf birch, and willow. Animal species include, but are not limited to, the woodland caribou, polar bear, arctic fox, arctic hare, Canadian geese, snow geese, willow ptarmigan, and several species of duck. This region spans an area of 50 million hectares, amounting to two-thirds of Ontario’s forests. This region is “heavily influenced by natural disturbances”.

The Arctic National Wildlife is a beautiful forest with various wildlives. Jimmy Carter describes his time spent with his wife in the Arctic forest. He was amazed by the beauty of such place. As stated, "During bright July days, we walked along ancient caribou trials." Jimmy gave his audience a sense of imagery when he described the way the place is. The wildlife that Jimmy saw was extraordinary to him as he examines more about the life in the Arctic National Wildlife. He experienced things that

DNA examination, researchers have possessed the capacity to land at a clearer photo of the polar bear's transformative way throughout the centuries. Somewhere in the range of 200,000 years back, when ice sheets secured quite a bit of Eurasia, the Arctic Ocean was totally solidified. It was amid this testing period that cocoa bears started to meander looking for sustenance. Roughly 125,000 years prior a populace of chestnut bears in the most distant north of their range was likely separated from their

Salamon Assad Performance Task: The Natural World Polar bears are one of so many animals that are going extinct . The polar bear is a bear who is a carnivorous whose native range lives in the Arctic Circle encompassing the Arctic Ocean, its surrounding seas and surrounding land masses. The polar bear is going extinct for many reasons but the main reasons is that there is ongoing and potential loss of their sea ice habitat because of climate change.According to WWF “Polar bears were listed as a

The Lhark is a landshark, which is the body of a shark and has legs with claws so it can maneuver onto any land terrain. It evolved from the Great White Shark because of water pollution and a loss of food due to fisherman and the quality of water in the ocean. It now lives across the world in a variety of places, but most commonly found on beaches as it is close to the ocean so it is easily accessible for the Lhark. It eats mostly mammals, and also fish, but not so much as they are all dying. This

One animal that prepares for the arrival of winter is the Rana Sylvatica, it is a species of wood frog’s that freezes it self through winter and then comes back to life. The tiny amphibians can survive for weeks with an incredible two-thirds of their body water completely frozen to the point where they are essentially solid frog sicles . Even more incredible is the fact that the wood frogs stop breathing and their hearts stop beating entirely for days to weeks at a time. In fact, during its period
