Greenland is an island located in the Arctic region and is part of the Kingdom of Denmark. The inland of Greenland mostly has a polar climate, while the coast has a tundra climate. Along the southwest coast of Greenland, there is a narrow strip where the sea has a moderating effect. In winter, inland temperatures can drop to as low as -50 degrees Celsius.
