Show transcript
The geographical North and South Poles mark where Earth’s axis meets Earth’s surface. The North Pole is located in the Arctic Ocean and the South Pole in the frozen continent of Antarctica. The Antarctic is colder because of its land mass, with high mountains and the Arctic warmer because much is ocean. Ice sheets cover land and ice shelves extend over the ocean.
