The amount of water frozen in these regions can be destructive if melted nod released to the warm waters. The McMurdo station is a destination for many scientists to conduct their studies on the waters and the life forms that survive in the cold environment (Nold, 2002).…

Tibet has long been a target for its neighboring countries, especially China. Since its foundation in the late 7th century, the former independent state has been invaded, conquered, and used too many times to count.
