Human Environment Interactions · The people here build many research buildings · No other effects

Location Absolute Location  · 90 degrees S  · 0 degrees E   · Located at the bottom of Earth Relative Location  · Near the southern tip of South America and Africa  · Near Australia  · South of all the countries on Earth  Movement Cultural Change: The explorers who first came here stayed in canvas tents and traveled on dog pulled sleds. Today, they live in high tech research centers and get around on machines that are built for tundra like conditions.  When people come here they dont bring many traditional items from their country and things that are being shipped to Antarctica travel by boat and then on the machines.   Regions · Peninsula regions · Island regions · Inland region · East Antarctic region The regions here are not very comparable in size to any other specific country due to the fact that the regions are small and that there are many regions. <span style="display: block; margin: 0in 0in 10pt 0.5in; mso-list: l1 level1 lfo2; text-align: justify; text-indent: -0.25in;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 115%; margin: 0in 0in 10pt; text-align: justify;"> Place It is cold year round and the climate is tundra which means that it is very dry and cold.
