R. C. Mossman has contrasted the summer temperatures of the northern and southern polar areas between longs. 10 E. And 50 W. In the follow- ing striking way. In the southern hemisphere, the isotherm of 35 F. Nowhere extends beyond lat. 58 S. ; in the northern, it reaches as far as lat. 81 N. , in Spitzbergen. At long. 10 E. The summer isotherm of 34 F. Is only about 550 miles from the north pole; on the same meridian in the southern hemisphere the distance is 2300 miles. The low mean and mini- ...mum temperatures of the south polar summer are responsible for much of the difficulty and danger of Antarctic exploration. They prevent much melting of snow and ice, and are monotonous and depressing. The temperatures at the south pole itself furnish an interesting subject for speculation. Meinardus has determined them to be 13 for the mean annual; 21. 2 for January and -7. 9 for July. The cor- responding figures for the north pole (Mohn) are - 8. 9; - 41. 8 and 30. 2. On the basis of these figures, the south pole averages 9 cooler in midsummer; CHARACTERISTICS OF ZONES POLAR 163 13.
