1. [Article] Climatology of Katabatic Winds in the McMurdo Dry Valleys, Southern Victoria Land, Antarctica
Katabatic winds dramatically affect the climate of the McMurdo dry valleys, Antarctica. Winter wind events can increase local air temperatures by 30°C. The frequency of katabatic winds largely controls ...Citation -
Climate observations from the McMurdo dry valleys, East Antarctica are presented from a network of seven valley floor automatic meteorological stations during the period 1986 to 2000. Mean annual temperatures ...

4. [Article] Hydrologic Response to Extreme Warm and Cold Summers in the McMurdo Dry Valleys, East Antarctica
The meteorological characteristics and hydrological response of an extreme warm, and cold summer in the McMurdo Dry Valleys are compared. The driver behind the warmer summer conditions was the occurrence ...Citation -
The seasonal melting of ice entombed cryoconite holes on McMurdo Dry Valley glaciers provides oases for life in the harsh environmental conditions of the polar desert where surface air temperatures only ...
