In this work, we present the climatic evolution of the South Pacific Ocean from 1900 to 2010 and its environmental influence over West Antarctica. We analyzed the sea surface temperature, mean sea level pressure, and meridional wind (at 850 hPa) of the South Pacific Ocean using ERA-20C reanalysis (E...
