The Ohio State University, Polar Meteorology Group provides weather and climate information in support of the ongoing AWARE field campaign. This information is particularly important at a time when an unusually strong El NiƱo event is unfolding in the equatorial Pacific. This kind of event can leave a significant imprint on the weather and climate of West Antarctica through atmospheric teleconnections. View Weather Map for Antarctica.
