Tundra

Biome characterized by permafrost and low-growing vegetation.

A tundra is a biome characterized by permanently frozen subsoil (permafrost), low-growing vegetation like mosses, lichens, and dwarf shrubs, and a short growing season. Found primarily in high latitudes (Arctic regions) and at high altitudes on mountains, tundras experience harsh conditions including cold temperatures, strong winds, and limited precipitation.
