The document describes two climate zones: temperate and frigid. The temperate climate zone is located between the Tropics and polar circles and is characterized by warm summers and cold winters. It features grasslands and temperate forests and is well-populated with both pastoral and nomadic peoples. The frigid climate zone includes the Arctic and Antarctic and is characterized by extremely cold temperatures, blizzards, ice, and six months of darkness or daylight. It supports sparse and seasonal vegetation and wildlife with thick fur and small human populations in the Arctic and only research stations in Antarctica.
