Antarctic climate
is affected by Southern
|
|
Annual Mode, ENSO, and ozone hole.
|
|
|
| § |
In recent
decades, Arctic climate has been
|
affected by a trend toward the positive
|
|
phase of Southern Annual Mode, which is
|
|
characterized by warm anomalies in the
|
|
Antarctic Peninsula but cold anomalies in
|
|
the rest of the continent.
|
|
|
| § |
This temperature change
pattern is not
|
|
projected to continue in the 21st century,
|
|
although the SAM is predicted to be in a
|
|
more positive phase. indicating the need
|
|
to consider the role of ozone hole in the
|
|
present-day peninsula warming.
