Answer:

Permafrost is any ground that remains completely frozen—32°F (0°C) or colder—for at least two years straight. These permanently frozen grounds are most common in regions with high mountains and in Earth's higher latitudes—near the North and South Poles. Permafrost covers large regions of the Earth.

Explanation:

Found under a layer of soil, permafrost can be from three feet to 4,900 feet thick. It stores the carbon-based remains of plants and animals that froze before they could decompose. ... As the global thermostat rises, permafrost, rather than storing carbon, could become a significant source of planet-heating emissions.
