 note = {Time series of surface air temperature recorded at eight stations upon the northern Antarctic Peninsula and South Shetland Islands were analyzed for the period 1971-2000 (longer time series were analyzed for some of the stations). Erroneous values and inhomogeneities were searched for. After homogenization, missing data were replaced by interpolated values. Monthly, seasonal, and annual trends in surface air temperature were analyzed, and their statistical significance calculated. Spatial variability in surface air-temperature trends was determined and three distinct regions identified: a southern region (Vernadsky, Rothera), eastern region (Esperanza, Marambio), and northern region (Bellingshausen, Prat, Frei, O'Higgins).Different trends in temperature were obtained for the eastern and western coasts of the Antarctic Peninsula, despite the close vicinity of the stations. The surface air temperature on the northern coast (O'Higgins) and in the northern region shows the smallest changes in temperature. The lowest surface air temperature and greatest warming trends during 1971-2000 were recorded on the eastern coast (Marambio and Esperanza) inautumn. The analyses confirm a warming trend (except for spring) at some stations. The most pronounced increasing seasonal trend was found in winter (five stations), followed by autumn (three stations). This warming is probably related to changes in atmospheric circulation, the extent of sea ice, and ocean processes., 南極半島北部およびサウス・シェトランド島８基地の1971－2000年の間の地上気温の時系列を解析し、トレンドを求めた。
地上気温トレンドから、３つのグループに分け、南部（ヴェルナルツキー、ロゼラ）、東部（エスペランザ、マランビオ）そして北部（ベリングスハウゼン、プラツ、フライ、オヒギンス）とした。南極半島東岸と西岸では、異なった地上気温のトレンドが得られ、半島北岸、北部では地上気温変化はわずかであった。最低の地上気温と最大の温暖化は東岸、秋季にみられた。
最も顕著な季節ごとの昇温トレンドは冬に、そして次は秋にみられた。この温暖化は、大気循環場、海氷の張り出しや海洋過程の変化に関連しているようだ。},
