Central tropical Pacific convection drives extreme high temperatures and surface melt on the Larsen C Ice Shelf, Antarctic Peninsula
K. R. Clem, D. Bozkurt, et al.
Discover how deep convection in the central tropical Pacific is driving extreme summer surface melt and record-high temperatures on the eastern Antarctic Peninsula and Larsen C Ice Shelf. This groundbreaking research by Kyle R. Clem, Deniz Bozkurt, Daemon Kennett, John C. King, and John Turner reveals the complex interplay of atmospheric phenomena influencing Antarctic conditions.
