The Arctic region covers much of Earth's northern pole. The outer edge of the Arctic—which includes areas of Alaska, Canada, Greenland, and Russia—is made up of glaciers and tundra (treeless plains with frozen ground called permafrost). The central part of the Arctic (around the North Pole) is surrounded with large areas of sea ice.

Throughout the year, temperatures can span a wide range. Average lows reach -40 degrees Fahrenheit in the winter and average highs reach 50 degrees Fahrenheit in the summer. A short growing season, permafrost, and long, dark winters of extreme cold and strong winds mean the Arctic is nearly treeless and only small plants can grow.

The Arctic is a unique ecosystem with a complex food web made up of organisms adapted to its extreme conditions. It is one of the most biologically productive ecosystems in the world, supporting many large fisheries and huge populations of migratory birds that come to the Arctic in the summer to breed.

Approximately four milion people, including indigenous people (Inuit) live in the Arctic. Inuit are experts at surviving in the harsh environment of the Arctic. Their clothes were made from animal fur and sealskin, keeping them warm in the subzero temperatures. Their diet used consists of meats such as walrus, whale, seal and reindeer. Their shelters used to be made from blocks of snow called iglos. They also built houses from logs or stone covered with earth. Their way of life changed when they started meeting new people and some of the Inuit left the Arctic to work in cities and towns in the 1800s and 1900s. Those who stayed in the Arctic began to use foreign goods such as snowmobiles, motorboats and guns.

The majority of the Arctic near the North Pole is covered in sea ice. The ice pack is in constant motion, drifting with ocean currents and prevailing winds. Ice is present year-round in the Arctic, expanding during the winter and retreating during the summer. Sea ice is a special feature of the Arctic, and most wildlife there depend on it in some way. Polar bears use the ice as platforms when feeding on seals. Walruses use the ice as a place to rest. There's even algae that live in the ice.

These foxes live on the land and sea ice within the Arctic Circle. From October to February, the sun never rises to shine warmth and light.

Luckily, these small foxes have some useful adaptations for living in the icy Arctic. Their thick fur coat keeps the fox’s body at a toasty 104 degrees. Their long, fluffy tails act lick a blanket. Their feet also have a layer thick fur, like built in snow boots.

Arctic sea ice is melting much faster than previously predicted. The region is on track to become an essentially ice-free environment in summer, with a much-reduced ice freeze-up occurring in winter. Already much of the "fast ice," or ice shelves attached to land, have broken up, including the 300-mile (480-kilometer) Ellesmere Ice Shelf along Ellesmere Island in northern Canada.

Did you know that approximately 10% of the world's fresh water is contained within the ice of the Arctic? This giant, white, frozen sheet of ice reflects the sunlight, therefore keeping the region cool and the global climate stable. However, the Arctic ice is melting at an alarming rate of -9% per decade, increasing the global temperature further and reducing the habitat of polar animals such as polar bears. Polar animals need the ice to live on, raise their young, hunt and to be able to rest on after long periods of swimming. The melting ice also increases sea levels, leading to an increase in floods.
