Surface mass balance monitoring of the peripheral glaciers of the Antarctic Peninsula in the context of regional climate change
Abstract During the second half of the 20th century, the Antarctic Peninsula region has undergone a long and sustained warming period, followed by a shorter but also sustained cooling period, and then a very recent return to warming conditions. All of these have profoundly impacted the glaciers peri...
