Köppen–Geiger climate classification map at 1-km resolution for Greenland 1991–2020 Retreat of the Helheim Glacier, Greenland Map of Greenland's rate of change in ice sheet height Map of Greenland bedrock. Greenland's climate is a tundra climate (Köppen ET) on and near the coasts and an ice cap climate (Köppen EF) in inland areas. It ...
This is a list of countries and sovereign states by temperature. Average yearly temperature is calculated by averaging the minimum and maximum daily temperatures in the country, averaged for the years 1991 – 2020, from World Bank Group , derived from raw gridded climatologies from the Climatic Research Unit .
Greenland Native name: Grønland Kalaallit Nunaat Outline map of Greenland with ice sheet depths. (Much of the area in green has permanent snow cover, but less than 10m (33ft) thick.)

New research suggests the Greenland ice sheet is on track to cross a critical threshold that could cause runaway melting, but that it’s also possible the threshold will be crossed temporarily, ...
Much of Northern Canada is covered by ice and permafrost; however, the future of the permafrost is uncertain because the Arctic has been warming at three times the global average as a result of climate change in Canada. [3] Canada's annual average temperature over land has warmed by 1.7 °C (3.1 °F), with changes ranging from 1.1 to 2.3 °C (2 ...
This is a list of cities by average temperature (monthly and yearly). The temperatures listed are averages of the daily highs and lows. Thus, the actual daytime temperature in a given month may be considerably higher than the temperature listed here, depending on how large the difference between daily highs and lows is.
In January, the average temperature in Norway is somewhere in between −6 °C (21 °F) and 3 °C (37 °F). [2] Like neighboring Norway, Finland averages −6 °C (21 °F) to 1 °C (34 °F) in the month of January. [2] Finnish areas north of the Arctic Circle rarely see the sun rise, due to the natural phenomenon of the polar night. [7]
Much of Northern Canada is covered by ice and permafrost; however, the future of the permafrost is uncertain because the Arctic has been warming at three times the global average as a result of climate change in Canada.
