## Abstract Surface air temperature records from stations on the west coast of the Antarctic Peninsula show a higher degree of interannual variability and stronger longβterm warming trends than recorded elsewhere in Antarctica. Possible mechanisms for driving these fluctuations are investigated. Th

## Abstract A highβresolution oneβdimensional atmospheric model is used to assess the contribution of various surface characteristics and external forcings on the structure and dynamics of the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) over the Antarctic Plateau in summer. The reference run simulates the bou
We have examined numerical modelling evidence based on the NASA GEOS-1 general circulation model in order to investigate the role of orography in determining the West African summer climate anomalies. Orographic climatic control and the influence of sea-surface temperature (SST) anomaly forcing were
