Popis | Geographical location of J. G. Mendel Station on the northern ice-free part of James Ross Island allows to study impacts of regional climate change on the terrestrial ecosystems. At present, monitoring network consists of nine automatic weather stations situated at different altitudinal zones from the seashore to mesas and glaciers respectively. The climate conditions of the northern part of James Ross Island are affected by the regional-scale atmospheric circulation formed by the Antarctic Peninsula mountains and advection of different (maritime and cold continental) air masses. Winter air temperatures show large interdiurnal variability because of cyclonic activity along latitudes 50 and 60 deg.S and sudden advections of different air masses. |
