The climate of Arctic deserts is extremely severe, with the high winds, with small amount of precipitation, by very low temperatures (the mean temperature even of the warmest month it is close to 0 °[S]). Snow cover is on dry land held almost the year round, descending only for the month -one-and-a-half. The long polar days and the nights, which are lasted on five months, short interseasons give special coloring to these severe places. Only the North Atlantic current introduce into some regions, such, as the West Banks of Spitsbergen, additional heat- and moisture.
Where all is covered with ice, life is it seems impossible. But this entirely not thus. In the places, where from under ice to the surface leave cliff- nunataks, there is its own plant world. In the cracks of the cliffs, where is accumulated a small quantity of ground, in the thawed sections of glacial deposits - moraines, near the snow fields settle the mosses, lichens, some forms of algae and even cereals and flowering plants. Among them [myatlik], cotton grass, polar poppy, [kuropatochya] grass- dryad, sedge, dwarfish willows, small birch, the different types of stone breaks. In the cold polar summer they manage to bloom and even to give fruits. The shelter finds on the coastal cliffs and nest in summer the numerous birds, that arrange on the cliffs “bird markets”, geese, seagulls, eiders, , snipe.
Dwell in the Arctic and the numerous Pinnipedia - seals, seal, walruses, marine elephants. Seals feed by fish, swimming in its searches to ices of Arctic Ocean. To be moved in the water with the enormous speed them the elongated streamlined shape of body helps. Seals themselves yellowish-gray, with the dark specks, and their young possess beautiful snowy , which they preserve to. Because of it they were called fur seals. Best-known inhabitant of the Arctic - polar bear. This is the largest predator on the Earth. The length of its body can reach 3 m, and the weight of adult bear of approximately 600 kgf and even is more!
