The Arctic Ocean is at the extreme north of the Earth. It exists at and round the North Pole and most of it is frozen for the whole year round. In winter explorers have trekked over the ice to the North Pole. The Arctic Ocean is smaller and shallower than the other Oceans and it is sometimes called the Arctic Sea. The corresponding ocean near the South Pole is the Southern Ocean.

  • The Arctic Ocean is the world’s smallest ocean and has an area of around 5,427,000. It extends between Asia, Europe, and North America. Most of the waters of Arctic Ocean exist north of the Arctic Circle. Throughout the year the Arctic Ocean is covered by a polar icepack that is around ten feet and three meters thick. Whenever the Earth’s climate changes the ice packs tend to melt. It is the shallowest of all Global Oceans.

  • The Arctic Ocean is the smallest of the five oceans on Earth, found in the northern polar region, and surrounded by North America, Eurasia and several islands. It connects to the Atlantic Ocean between Greenland, Iceland and Norway and to Pacific Ocean through the Bering Strait between Siberia and Alaska. Much of the ocean is covered by ice throughout the year, making ship passage difficult. The North Pole is located in the Arctic Ocean.

  • The Arctic Ocean is the smallest of the five oceans on Earth, found in the northern polar region, and surrounded by North America, Eurasia and several islands. It connects to the Atlantic Ocean between Greenland, Iceland and Norway and to Pacific Ocean through the Bering Strait between Siberia and Alaska. Much of the ocean is covered by ice throughout the year, making ship passage difficult. The North Pole is located in the Arctic Ocean. In 1936, Indiana Jones, Marcus Brody and Janice Le Roi traveled to the Arctic Ocean from the Bering Strait aboard a whaling ship, hoping to find an inlet on the northern coast of Siberia that would lead them to a spot near the Tomb of the Gods.
  • The Arctic Ocean is a vast, mostly frozen, expanse of water around the North Pole of Planet Earth. It is one of only 6 recognised oceans in the world along with the Atlantic Ocean, Pacific Ocean, Indian Ocean, Southern Ocean and Billy Ocean. For most of the year, the Arctic Ocean is covered with a cap of ice, a so called ice-cap. The ice-cap appears to be shrinking year on year although it is unclear whether this is a good or a bad thing. Climate scientists and former vice presidents tend to say it is a bad thing and we are causing it but talk show DJs say that’s just hippy talk which many see as a convincing counter-argument. Increasing weight is being given to the idea that as the world is facing a water shortage, the polar ice-caps are a source of fresh water so if we increase our efforts to warm the planet, we will melt the icecaps and send some lovely fresh drinking water from the Arctic to the grateful Africans. For more information, please see article in Global Warming. Although desolate, some people do inhabit areas on the edge of the Arctic Ocean. Some like the various peoples that make up the Eskimo peoples such as the Inuit have been stuck there for generations but others, Westerners such as Americans and Canadians choose to live there, a fact God himself fails to understand.
