Antarctica: Location & Geography


Antarctica: Location & GeographyVersión en línea Two characters explore Antarctica's location and key facts. por Mark Cowan Alex Did you know most of Antarctica lies south of the Antarctic Circle and is covered by thick ice? Sam Yes, about 98% of the continent is glacial ice, often more than 1.6 km thick. Alex The coastline is mostly edged by ice shelves, and the largest is the Ross Ice Shelf in the Ross Sea. Sam That shelf is bigger than the British Isles—impressive scale. Alex Antarctica is surrounded by the Southern Ocean, or Antarctic Ocean, wrapping the southern parts of the Pacific, Indian, and Atlantic. Sam Around 60°S, cold Antarctic waters meet sub-Antarctic waters at the Antarctic Convergence Zone, creating mixing and high marine productivity. Alex That zone is about 32 to 48 km wide and boosts life like Antarctic krill due to upwelling currents. Sam Geographically, Antarctica has two regions—East and West—divided by the Transantarctic Mountains, with Vinson Massif as the highest peak. Alex Interesting: there are rivers and lakes too, including Lake Vostok; the interior is a polar desert with very low precipitation. Sam All this sits under the Antarctic Treaty system, which preserves science, protects the environment, and bans weapons.
