The atmospheric water vapor is an important indicator of the Earth’s climate state and evolution. We therefore aimed at calculating the content and long-term variation of the precipitable water vapor at five coastal Antarctic stations, i.e., Casey, Davis, Mawson, McMurdo, and Mario Zucchelli. To do...
