Detection and attribution of Antarctic climate change

Bracegirdle, Thomas J. ORCID: https://orcid.org/0000-0002-8868-4739. 2012 Detection and attribution of Antarctic climate change. Anales del Instituto de la Patagonia, 40 (1). 51-56. 10.4067/S0718-686X2012000100005

Abstract
The current understanding of climate changes that have occurred in the last 50 years over Antarctica is presented with a focus on: (i) a summer warming of the eastern Antarctic Peninsula, which caused the collapse of the larsen B ice shelf, (ii) the observed significant increase of total sea ice extent and (iii) an anthropogenic ‘fingerprint’ in the Antarctic-wide temperature change pattern. The implications of this for predictions of the future are discussed.
