Under the control of polar continental air masses, the climate is cold, dry and long in winter; in summer, affected by subtropical ocean air masses, precipitation is concentrated, abundant rainfall, hot and humid climate, and long sunshine hours, suitable for the growth of cold-tolerant crops, but prone to floods and low-temperature cold damage; In spring and autumn, the climate is changeable due to the alternation of winter and summer monsoons. In spring, there are strong winds, less precipitation, and dry and dry conditions, making forest fires easy to occur. In autumn, the temperature drops sharply, and early frost and freezing damage often occur.

The average annual precipitation is 460.8 mm, and more than 70% of the annual precipitation is concentrated in July. The dry season is from May to June, and the flood season is from July to August. The annual average total solar radiation is 96 to 107 kcal per square centimeter, and the sunshine hours are 2377 to 2625 hours. The accumulated temperature of ≥10℃ is 1436~2062℃.

Arctic Village is a perennial frozen soil area. The thickest frozen soil is less than 100 meters. Where the frozen soil is the shallowest, the maximum upper boundary of thawing is only about 20 centimeters. The survival and growth of local wild animals and plants exceed the low temperature extremes they can tolerate and become a limiting factor. But for cold-tolerant animals and plants that like low temperatures, the temperature range is suitable.

The Arctic has boundless ice and snow and long winters. The North Pole, like the South Pole, has polar day and night phenomena, which become more obvious the closer you get to the North Pole.

The Arctic winter is long, cold and dark. Starting from November 23rd every year, for nearly half a year, the sun will be completely invisible. The temperature will drop to more than 50 degrees Celsius below zero. At this point all waves and tides are gone, for the coast is frozen and only the wind carries the snow in all directions.

In April, the weather gradually warmed up, the ice and snow gradually melted, large pieces of ice began to melt, break, and collide, making loud noises; the creeks began to gurgling water; the sky became brighter. , the sun shines on the earth.

In May and June, plants are covered with the green color of life, and animals become active and busy breeding offspring. During this season, animals can get enough food and accumulate enough nutrients and fat to survive the long winter.

The autumn in the Arctic is very short. In early September, the first snowstorm will come. The Arctic is quickly returning to the cold, dark winter months.

In the North Pole, the sun never rises high into the sky. Even in midsummer, its rising angle does not exceed 23.5 degrees. The annual precipitation in the Arctic is generally 100-250 mm, and can reach 500 mm in the Greenland Sea. Precipitation is concentrated on offshore land, and the main form is summer rain.

The winter in the Arctic Ocean lasts for 6 months from November to April of the following year. May and June and September and October belong to spring and autumn respectively. Summer only lasts for two months, July and August. The average temperature in January is between -20~-40℃.

The average temperature in August, the warmest month, only reaches -8℃. The lowest temperature measured on a drifting station near the pole of the Arctic Ocean was -59°C. Due to the influence of ocean currents and Arctic anticyclones, the coldest places in the Arctic are not in the central Arctic Ocean. A minimum temperature of -70°C was recorded in Verkhoyansk, Siberia, and a temperature of -62°C was recorded in the Prospect region of Alaska.

The closer to the pole, the more obvious the polar meteorological and climate characteristics are. There, there is only one day and one night in a year. Even in midsummer, the sun hangs far above the southern horizon, glowing with a pale white light. The sun never rises higher than 23.5°, and it moves quietly around the endless white world. A few months later, the sun's trajectory gradually approaches the horizon, and the Arctic twilight season begins.
