| At the Montreal Biodome, go from the humid heat of the tropical forest to fresh air of the Laurentian forest, then from the depths of the St. Lawrence River to the subpolar shores. |
| Argentina's fauna and flora vary widely from the country's mountainous zones to its dry and humid plains and its subpolar regions. |
| It must be pointed out that in Antarctic fur seals, the pup rearing period occurs during the short subpolar summer. |
| Poleward of these centres, the surface winds turn westward again over significant portions of the subpolar latitudes. |
| Timescales for a first response of the Atlantic to increased freshwater runoff from Greenland were shown to be just a few years for the subpolar North Atlantic and 5-10 years for the Atlantic and global ocean. |
| Although the cause of the NAO is yet unknown, one hypothesis has linked its decadal shifts to the movement of water masses of variable temperature and salinity through the subpolar gyre in the North Atlantic. |
