Subarctic: It is colder than the Tundra. It's temperature is similar to the one in the South part of the Arctic circle.
Ice cap: often there are 2 miles of thickness in the ice layer. The indirect rays of the sun give constant light but little heat. There are no trees because the snow. Places in the Ice cap region are Greenland and the Antarctic.
