{"product_id":"브리태니커-만화-백과-북극과-남극","title":"Britannica Comic Encyclopedia: The Arctic and Antarctic","description":"Description\nBased on the renowned encyclopedia published by Encyclopaedia Britannica of Chicago, USA, this book brings together the core curriculum content that Korean elementary school students need to know, organized into a clear system of learning. Rather than separating the humanities and social sciences from the natural sciences, the book presents comprehensive knowledge on each topic as a whole, helping to nurture creative thinkers who possess both humanistic imagination and a solid understanding of science and technology. Large amounts of information are organized through visual imagery rather than dense text or lengthy explanations. The infographic at the beginning of the book summarizes the core content through diagrams and illustrations, sparking readers' curiosity from the very first page. The comic-style main text and vivid photographs make learning fun while helping readers absorb and retain information more effectively. Rather than simply listing isolated facts, the book follows the comic's main characters as they apply what they've learned and experienced to pursue positive values — caring for the environment, respecting differences, and considering the greater good of humanity.\n\nPrologue: Let's Head to the Polar Regions! 8\n\n01 The Coldest Places on Earth\nWhat Are the Arctic and Antarctic Like? 14\nThe angle of the sun \/ Glaciers \/ How glaciers form\nPolar adaptation training \/ Basic equipment needed for polar exploration\nHow Are the Arctic and Antarctic Different? 22\nA vast world of ice: the extent of the polar regions 26\nThe location and area of the Arctic and Antarctic\nWhat happens when global warming melts the glaciers?\nFrozen Blocks of Ice: Glaciers and Icebergs 31\nDoes seawater freeze too? \/ What does sea ice taste like? \/ Types of sea ice \/ The shapes of icebergs\n\n02 The Arctic\nAnimals of the Arctic 40\nArctic sea animals \/ How polar bears survive the cold\nArctic land animals \/ The Arctic climate\nPlants of the Arctic 48\nTypes of glaciers \/ A treeless land: the tundra\nArctic plants adapted to the cold \/ Antifreeze proteins\nPeople of the Arctic 56\nThe Inuit, native people of the Arctic \/ Traditional Inuit hunting tools\nTypes of sled dogs \/ The science of igloos \/ Diverse native peoples of the Arctic\nNew Possibilities: Arctic Resources 69\nArctic resources \/ A land with owners: the Arctic \/ The Arctic Council\nMeeting the Researchers of the Arctic 74\nNy-Ålesund International Research Base \/ Gas hydrates \/ Research conducted at Dasan Station\nWhite nights and polar nights \/ Svalbard Global Seed Vault\nExplorers of the Arctic 84\nWhat is an icebreaker ship? \/ The Araon\nFind the North Pole! 92\nThe geographic North Pole and the magnetic North Pole \/ Why Earth has a magnetic field\nMammoths \/ Earth in the late Cretaceous period \/ Creatures whose fossils have been found in the Arctic\nDid dinosaurs once live in the Arctic? \/ The Arctic Ocean: a sea of opportunity!\n\n03 Antarctica\nThe World's Roughest Waters: The Drake Passage 104\nThe Gentlemen of Antarctica: Penguins 108\nCharacteristics of penguins \/ The wisdom of huddling to endure the cold\nHow penguins recognize family by their calls \/ Penguins that live in Antarctica\nHow penguins avoid frostbite \/ Penguin milk\nAnimals of Antarctica 118\nCharacteristics of seals \/ Seals of Antarctica \/ Characteristics of whales\nWhales of Antarctica \/ Seabirds of Antarctica\nPlants of Antarctica 128\nLichens and mosses \/ Antarctic plants that survive in the ice\nIce Deserts and Volcanoes 132\nThe Dry Valleys \/ Don Juan Pond \/ Antarcticite\nDeception Island \/ The three major active volcanoes of Antarctica\nExplorers of Antarctica 140\nThe Scott expedition's penguin research log \/ The history of human exploration in Antarctica\nScott and Amundsen: the dream of conquering Antarctica\nFind the South Pole! 146\nCrevasses \/ Phenomena you can experience in Antarctica \/ Ceremonial South Pole marker\nResearchers of Antarctica 154\nExploring the unknown world of Antarctica \/ Antarctica's research stations\nSovereignty claims in Antarctica and the Antarctic Treaty\nFuture Possibilities: Resources of Antarctica 158\nUnderground resources of Antarctica \/ The Madrid Protocol \/ Antarctica's scientific stations\nEpilogue: The Gift the Polar Regions Gave Us 163\n\nLearn About the Arctic and Antarctic Through the Britannica World Encyclopedia\nRo-un sets off on a polar expedition to meet his father, who is in Antarctica, together with his best friend Seul-gi, documentary filmmaker Director Oh, and his assistant Kkong-kkong-i.
