7 Weather The weather in the arctic is really cold. It is the coldest Region in Canada. In the arctic it is always snowy. It is about 60*c in the arctic. There is a large amount of variability in CLIMATE across the Arctic, but all regions experience extremes of SOLAR RADIATION in both summer and winter. The weather in the winter is often well below 0šF. But the Arctic Ocean helps to keep things moderate along the coastal areas. In the summer the temperature is usually cool and is usually around 30*c to 40*c. The ground is permanently frozen and during the summer the soil thaws only a few inches. It is often windy and the combination of wind and cold drops the chill factor far below the real temperature. It is a hard climate for any animal to live in, but the Arctic is full of animals.

Shallow-draft barges and boats will continue to be used to transport bulk cargo during the brief season around the perimeter of the Arctic Ocean. Large, very powerful icebreaker cargo ships for transport through the Arctic Ocean ice mantle are feasible and have been demonstrated; however, docking, loading, and general operational problems must be solved.
