De nombreux phénomènes doivent être pris en compte pour prédire avec précision l'évolution des températures en Antarctique, notamment l'évolution de la 'cicatrisation' de la couche d'ozone. L'amincissement de cette couche atmosphérique protectrice, en influençant un phénomène climatique appelé l'oscillation antarctique (ou mode annulaire austral [...]), a contribué à faire baisser les températures. 7, record 1, French, - oscillation%20antarctique
