DOI: 10.1016/j.jastp.2018.08.003
Abstract: Abstract An increasing body of evidence supports the conclusion that electrical variations in the Polar Regions influence atmospheric radiative properties. These influences can be transmitted (1) by the global electric circuit from remote thunderstorms and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41558-020-0815-z
Abstract: Over the last three decades, the South Pole has experienced a record-high statistically significant warming of 0.61 ± 0.34 °C per decade, more than three times the global average. Here, we use an ensemble of climate model experiments… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41558-020-0827-8
Abstract: Over the last half of the twentieth century, surface temperature over the South Pole was steady if not slightly cooling, suggesting the high Antarctic interior might be immune to warming. Research now shows a dramatic… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-018-35182-0
Abstract: Melting at the base of the Antarctic Ice Sheet influences ice dynamics and our ability to recover ancient climatic records from deep ice cores. Basal melt rates are affected by geothermal flux, one of the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1109/tasc.2016.2639378
Abstract: In this paper, we describe the optimization of transition-edge-sensor (TES) detector arrays for the third-generation camera for the South Pole Telescope. The camera, which contains ∼16 000 detectors, will make high-angular-resolution maps of the temperature and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1126/sciadv.abm8475
Abstract: The formation of the largest and most ancient lunar impact basin, South Pole–Aitken (SPA), was a defining event in the Moon’s evolution. Using numerical simulations, we show that widespread mantle heating from the SPA impact… read more here.

Six Decades of Seismology at South Pole, Antarctica: Current Limitations and Future Opportunities to Facilitate New Geophysical Observations
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "Seismological Research Letters"
DOI: 10.1785/0220200448
Abstract: Seismograms from the South Pole have been important for seismological observations for over six decades by providing (until 2007) the only continuous seismic records from the interior of the Antarctic continent. The South Pole, Antarctica… read more here.
