The weather It is the set of atmospheric conditions that prevail and characterize a geographical area, as long as cold climates are distinguished because normal and recurring temperatures throughout the year are below zero, very cold. This situation occurs in the areas poles corresponding to both hemispheres, North and South and in the high mountains.
Accompanying the cold in this type of climate is the wind, which is certainly intense and both make up an alliance that makes these areas difficult to inhabit and therefore they are sparsely populated, such is the case of the North and South poles.
However, extreme cold can be seen at both poles, being the coldest temperatures even in Antarctica, because it is a continent.
Then, in descending order of cold with respect to what is felt at the pole, we find the highest regions of the mountain ranges, in them also the climate is hyper cold, although as we pointed out, a little less than what happens in the poles.
And in a minor step we find cold climates in those areas that are close to the poles. For example, in South America, more precisely in the Argentine Republic, its southernmost province, Tierra del Fuego has a cold climate throughout the year. Although human life develops there without problems since the cold is not polar like in Antarctica, it is worth noting that the people who reside there receive some subsidies especially in regard to heating their homes.
In cold climates we can find two very characteristic landscapes of these. On the one hand the tundra whose terrain is open and very flat, where the glacial climate obviously predominates. The subsoil is icy and therefore lacks vegetation while on the ground conditions are also cold and there is a predominance of mosses and lichens.
The other landscape is that of the glacial one, where the waters are literally frozen ice and the peaks of the mountains are completely covered in snow.
