Heat Zones of The Earth
Torrid Zone
⇒ This is also referred to as Tropical zone. The Tropics is a region on the Earth surrounding Equator by the Tropic of Cancer in the northern hemisphere at 23°26′16″ N (approx.) and the Tropic of Capricorn in the southern hemisphere at 23°26’16″S (approx.). The Tropics include all the areas on the Earth where the sun reaches a point directly overhead at least once in a year.
⇒ This area receives maximum heat and is called the Torrid (hot) Zone.
Frigid Zone
⇒ Near the polar regions, the rays of the Sun are very Islanting and so it is very cold.
⇒ The region/area between the Arctic Circle and the North Pole in the Northern Hemisphere is called the Frigid zone.
⇒ There are similar regions in the Southern Hemisphere between the Antarctic Circle and the South Pole, also called the Frigid Zone (frigid means cold).
