The disintegration of the ice shelves along the Antarctic Peninsula have spurred much
discussion on the various processes leading to their eventual dramatic collapse, but without …

Abstract The Antarctic Peninsula (AP) experienced a new extreme warm event and record-
high surface melt in February 2022, rivaling the recent temperature records from 2015 and …

The Antarctic Continent, which has the most challenging environmental-field conditions such
as high cost logistics needs, extreme weather events, and natural elements that makes …

Climate warming is causing an increase in the frequency and severity of heatwaves and
extreme precipitation events, posing a threat to both socioeconomic stability and human …

Sea ice is a key habitat in the high latitude Southern Ocean and is predicted to change in its
extent, thickness and duration in coming decades. The sea-ice cover is instrumental in …

Regional climate models (RCMs) have a high computational cost due to their higher spatial
resolution compared to global climate models (GCMs). Therefore, various downscaling …

We calculate a regional surface “melt potential” index (MPI) over Antarctic ice shelves that
describes the frequency (MPI-freq;%) and intensity (MPI-int; K) of daily maximum summer …

We assess temperature and moisture transport in and around the Antarctic Peninsula (AP)
associated with atmospheric blocking over two domains, one located to the west (150–90° …

Ice shelf collapse reduces buttressing and enables grounded glaciers to contribute more
rapidly to sea-level rise in a warming climate. The abrupt collapses of the Larsen A (1995) …

We analyze the seasonal evolution and trends of atmospheric blocking from 1979 to 2018
using a geopotential-height-based method over two domains, one located to the west (150° …
