Recent Near-surface Temperature Trends in the Antarctic Peninsula from Observed, Reanalysis and Regional Climate Model Data
This study investigates the recent near-surface temperature trends over the Antarctic Peninsula. We make use of available surface observations, ECMWF’s ERA5 and its predecessor ERA-Interim, as well…
Climate warming amplified the 2020 record-breaking heatwave in the Antarctic Peninsula
February 2020 was anomalously warm in the Antarctic Peninsula region and registered one of the most intense heatwaves ever recorded in Western Antarctica. The event featured unprecedented regional…
Sixty Years of Widespread Warming in the Southern Middle and High Latitudes (1957–2016)
Temperature trends across Antarctica over the last few decades reveal strong and statistically significant warming in West Antarctica and the Antarctic Peninsula (AP) contrasting with no significant…
Winter climate change on the northern and southern Antarctic Peninsula
Abstract Differences in the decadal trend in the winter surface temperature in the northern and southern Antarctic Peninsula have been analysed. Time series from the two stations Esperanza and…
The Medieval Climate Anomaly in Antarctica
How robust are the temperature trends on the Antarctic Peninsula?
Abstract The upward evolution of temperatures in the Antarctic Peninsula has weakened and even reversed in the last two decades. Due to the long-term variability in the region it is not easy to…
Dominant role of vertical air flows in the unprecedented warming on the Antarctic Peninsula in February 2020
Near-surface air temperature at the Argentinian research base Esperanza on the northern tip of the Antarctic Peninsula reached 18.3 °C on 6 February 2020, which is the highest temperature ever…
How robust is the recent cooling trend in the Antarctic Peninsula? [Dataset]
The upward evolution of temperatures in the Antarctic Peninsula has weakened and even reversed in the last two decades. Due to the long-term variability of the region it is not easy to assess whether…
A review of the observed air temperature in the Antarctic Peninsula. Did the warming trend come back after the early 21st hiatus?
Record warming at the South Pole during the past three decades
Over the last three decades, the South Pole has experienced a record-high statistically significant warming of 0.61 ± 0.34 °C per decade, more than three times the global average. Here, we use an…

Warming of the Antarctic ice-sheet surface since the 1957 International Geophysical Year
TLDR
It is shown that significant warming extends well beyond the Antarctic Peninsula to cover most of West Antarctica, an area of warming much larger than previously reported and suggested that neither can be attributed directly to increases in the strength of the westerlies.
An assessment and interpretation of the observed warming of West Antarctica in the austral spring
