This report is a continuation of an investigation to determine whether or not a true Antarctica diurnal temperature variation exists and to determine the extent of statistical bias in modifying the mean temperature variations of specially selected days. In broadening the original study, the authors utilized an additional 12 years of data, a second geographical location and more accurate methods of obtaining results.
