Greenland lies in the polar climate zone, also known as tundra climate. Greenland's extension in latitude amounts to 1200 km. That means there are regional climatic differences. The yearly average temperature is however below zero in all parts of Greenland. Due to the ice formation there are no windless areas. Yearly precipitation varies from 200 mm to 700 mm.
