Abstract

The Antarctic Peninsula (AP) marks the climatic transition between maritime and dry subpolar Antarctica. The western side of the AP has a mean annual air temperature (MAAT) between –2.7 and –3.4 °C, with up to 2 months with temperatures above freezing, and a mean annual precipitation (MAP) ranging from 400 to 800 mm, with some of the precipitation falling as rain.
