Siberian ice caps
The Siberian ice caps are large, permanent ice formations located in Siberia, covering parts of the Russian Arctic. They consist of thick ice sheets and glaciers that store Cold temperatures and accumulate snow over thousands of years. These ice caps play a crucial role in Earth's climate by reflecting sunlight and regulating temperatures. Due to climate change, they are melting at an accelerated pace, contributing to rising sea levels and affecting global climate patterns. Their study helps scientists understand past climate changes and predict future environmental shifts.
