Answer:

PERMAFROST LAYER

Explanation:

Permafrost layer is usually defined as the thick layer of soil that is mixed with the broken rock fragments and other sediments, and are covered by ice throughout the year. These are mostly found in the higher latitudinal region, where the thickness of these layers ranges from a few meters to tens and hundreds of meters. The melting of these layers in these regions leads to an increase in the sea level.

For example, the permafrost layers of tundra and subarctic zones in Russia and its nearby areas, which have a thickness of about three meters.

How does the shape of the earth affect the climate of diffrent regions please answer!
xxTIMURxx [149]
<span>"Because the Earth is spherical in shape, the areas between the Poles and the Equator benefit from solar energy to different extents over the year. Those areas on the Equator receive the highest levels of solar energy, and that energy declines towards the Poles. The temperatures of atmospheric masses thus differ as one moves from the Equator to the Poles." (http://assandra-sciences.blogspot.com/2010/07/how-does-shape-of-earth-affect-climate.html)
