There are six categories within the SSC scheme: Dry Polar ( similar to continental polar ), Dry Moderate ( similar to maritime superior ), Dry Tropical ( similar to continental tropical ), Moist Polar ( similar to maritime polar ), Moist Moderate ( a hybrid between maritime polar and maritime tropical ), and Moist Tropical ( similar to maritime tropical, maritime monsoon, or maritime equatorial ).

Polar bears are believed rarely to travel beyond about 82 ° North owing to the scarcity of food, though tracks have been seen in the vicinity of the North Pole, and a 2006 expedition reported sighting a polar bear just from the Pole.

Polar bears can breed with brown bears to produce fertile grizzly – polar bear hybrids, rather than indicating that they have only recently diverged, the new evidence suggests more frequent mating has continued over a longer period of time, and thus the two bears remain genetically similar.

The population of polar bears are locally recovering from the major culls of the 1960s and 1970s that came about due to the availability of snow scooters ; however, the Polar bear remains threatened at a global level, due to unsustainable levels of killing by humans and due to marine water pollution.

Polar solutes dissolve in polar solvents, forming polar bonds or hydrogen bonds.

They also gave an impetus to International Polar Years, meaning a shift from sports-like races of single expeditions to worldwide scientific cooperation in exploring the polar regions.

The International Polar Year ( or IPY ) is a collaborative, international effort researching the polar regions.

The Second Polar Year ( 1932 – 33 ) program studied how much observations in the polar regions could improve weather forecasts and help transport by air and sea.

On September 6, 2007, Belgian-based International Polar Foundation unveiled octagonal spaceship-like Princess Elisabeth station, the world's first zero-emissions polar science station in Antarctica to research on climate change.

Costing $ 16. 3 million, the prefabricated station, which is part of International Polar Year, will be shipped to Antarctica from Belgium ( to monitor the health of the polar regions, using icebreakers, satellites, stations and submarines ).

This polar station was the main motif in one of the most recent commemorative coins issued by Belgium: the International Polar Foundation commemorative coin minted in 2007, with a face value of 10 euro.

Adult South Polar Skuas are greyish brown above, and have a whitish ( pale morph ) or straw-brown ( intermediate morph ) head and underparts, and the contrast between head and body makes it easy to separate from similar species with good views.

Polar filaments in both this stage and in the myxospore stage ( see picture above ) rapidly shoot into the body of the host, creating an opening through which the sporoplasm can enter.

* February 24 – Returning to West Germany from Antarctica, where in December 1984 it had become one of the first two German planes ever to land at the South Pole, Polar 3, a Dornier Do 228 operated as a survey and research airplane by the Alfred Wegener Institute for Polar and Marine Research, is shot down over Western Sahara south of Dakhla by Polisario Front guerrillas, killing its entire three-man crew.

He began as an ordinary seaman on the 1st rate ship of the line ( 110 guns ) Ville de Paris, where he shared living quarters with William Edward Parry, then a twelve year old midshipman, who would also go on to make a name for himself in Polar exploration.

Minbari also have a lower tolerance for hot and humid weather than humans, due to their race having evolved on the seventh planet of the Minbar Solar System, where one-quarter of the planet's surface is dominated by the Northern Polar ice cap.

After he destroys the base, the Crayven and Order forces in Krig gather around the Polar region, where the Giant xenofact was found by Parker, and declare a cease-fire, which shocks the crowd.

It is also where the awarding ceremony for the Nobel Prizes, Polar Music Prize are held annually.

* Polar city-a proposed human refuge located in northern regions of the Earth, and in Tasmania, New Zealand and the Antarctica, where people might have to live in order to survive major global warming " events " in the far distant future, also dubbed Lovelock Retreats.

Hamelin developed an index he called Valeur polaires ( Polar values ) or VAPO, where the North Pole had a VAPO of 1000.

* Polar jet, a phenomenon in astronomy, where streams of matter are emitted along the axis of rotation of a compact object

Polar twilight occurs in areas that are located at the inner border of the polar circles, where the sun will be on or below the horizon all day on the winter solstice, although there may still be enough light for normal outdoor activities during civil twilight because of light scattering by the upper atmosphere and refraction.

) obtains an ice core from a position in southeast Greenland where the Polar MM5 model simulates a maximum in snow accumulation, 2.

Lawbot HQ At the end of Polar Place ( The Brrrgh ) is where Lawbot HQ resides.

By the late 1960s the engines had been removed from the glen and Polar Bear was restored as an operating exhibit at Amberley Working Museum, West Sussex and Sea Lion was taken to Loughborough where it remained until 1987 when it was finally restored and returned to service on the restored line.

Hundreds of isolated two degree fields near the South Polar band were also surveyed ( see this illustration, where black circles represent survey fields, and the red grid represents the earlier APM survey ).

One characteristic of the " Polar Victorian " euornithopods are distinctive spurs, or trochanters, on the upper surface of the thigh bone ( or femur ), where muscle was attached.

Also, early in the morning, the ever popular Polar Bear Swim occurs, where a large group of " Lunatics " jumps in the water for a period of singing and fun.

Polar mounts are popular with home television receive-only ( TVRO ) satellite systems where they can be used to access the TV signals from many different geostationary satellites.
