(1) But it is equally applicable to rural and remote areas in much of the world, and in sparsely populated regions such as the Arctic circumpolar area.(2) It seems that there have been circumpolar nomads present at least since the last glaciation period, which ended around 10,000 BC.(3) These landforms occur throughout the circumpolar boreal zone.(4) In other higher latitudes, it would become circumpolar , never setting - the land of the midnight moon, one could say.(5) Even small changes in the oceanographic conditions in the Southern Ocean, the circumpolar sea around Antarctica, could affect southern right whale population dynamics.(6) This is because of the position of Antarctica, isolated from surrounding land masses with a circumpolar ocean current that cuts it off from warmer water.(7) If one notices, the shuttle takes a circumpolar route as it orbits.(8) It sets out objectives and priorities for Canada's foreign policy in the circumpolar world, including the northern territories of Canada, Russia, the U.S., the Nordic countries, and the waters that surround them.(9) One study found that since 1978, the ice cover in the circumpolar Arctic has fallen by about 3 percent per decade; another estimate puts it at 14 percent per decade.(10) The deeps of the Pacific, the Atlantic, and Indian Oceans all join the circumpolar deeps of the southern oceans.(11) Arctic char have a circumpolar distribution and more commonly occur in northern waters.(12) About 100,000 inhabit northern circumpolar waters in at least 29 separate stocks, with the largest concentration in Canada's Hudson Bay.(13) The opening of this gateway eventually led to the relative thermal isolation of Antarctica and the creation of the clockwise strong Antarctic circumpolar current.(14) Antarctica became isolated from the other continents in the Miocene, leading to the formation of a circumpolar ocean circulation.(15) Lying within the circumpolar region, between the ocean and spectacular mountain ranges, its long dark winters are offset by plentiful hours of summer daylight.(16) One idiosyncrasy of this method was that because these two stars were circumpolar (they never set), they could be seen from Egypt year - round.
