Svalbard and Jan Mayen are two overseas territories of the Kingdom of Norway, located in the Arctic region where the Arctic Ocean meets the North Atlantic Ocean. Svalbard is situated between the Norwegian mainland and the North Pole, with the main island, the city of Longyearbyen in Spitsbergen, as the main settlement, with scientific facilities such as the Global Seed Vault, which is special due to the fact that the Treaty of Svalbard allows for equal economic activities for citizens of many countries, and Jan Mayen, a volcanic island with a Norwegian meteorological station in the Greenland Sea, which is not permanently inhabited. Both have polar climates, dominated by tundra landscapes, with long, cold winters and short, cool summers, making them important areas for Arctic scientific research and ecological monitoring, as well as destinations for adventure tourism.
