jäätikkövyöhykkeet
Jäätikkövyöhykkeet, or glacial zones, refer to the geographical areas characterized by the presence of glaciers and ice sheets. These regions are predominantly found at high latitudes near the Earth's poles and at high altitudes in mountain ranges. The extent and nature of these zones are largely dictated by climate, specifically by temperature and precipitation patterns that allow for the accumulation and persistence of ice over long periods.
The polar regions, including Antarctica and Greenland, represent the largest and most significant glacial zones. These
The existence and characteristics of glacial zones are directly linked to glacial periods and interglacial periods
