Question

What is the location of the frigid zone in the Northern Hemisphere?

Answer 1

The location of the frigid zone in the Northern Hemisphere is between the Arctic Circle `(66 1/2°N)` and the North Pole (90°N). This zone experiences an extremely cold climate with slanting Sun rays throughout the year, and often has long periods of no sunlight in winter. Much of the solar radiation is reflected back due to snow cover and a thick atmosphere, so very little heat reaches the Earth’s surface in this zone.
