CRUX-1.0: an automatic GHG and Ozone observation system for inland Antarctica Plateau

Abstract. Antarctic inland regions, as critical hubs for global climate change monitoring, suffer from a lack of reliable long-term greenhouse gas (GHG) observation systems due to extremely low temperatures, strong winds, and limited logistical/energy support. To address this gap...

The recent enhancement of the surface melt over the Antarctic Peninsula dictated by thermodynamics

Intense surface melt and subsequent meltwater ponding are the key triggers for the disintegration of ice shelves in the Antarctic Peninsula (AP). Although a long-term decline in AP surface melt has been evident since the early 1990s, episodes of intense surface melt events have f...
