The physical landscapes of the arctic are like no other. The history is embedded into the deep rock, the ice has been around for millions of years, and scars on the surface tell many stories. This website is devoted to the physical geography of the area. The historic ice sheets that covered almost the entire continent originated here. When the Earth's temperatures rose for reasons still being determined today, the ice melted revealing a scarred landscape of beauty. Within the Arctic are landforms, minerals, habitats, and much more.
