Climate indices change during 21st century in high-resolution RCMs

The Antarctic is a critical component of the global atmosphere-ocean-cryosphere interaction and is simultaneously one of the regions most sensitive to climate change. However, the response to climate change varies significantly across the continent. Therefore, it is crucial to understand how the Antarctic will be impacted by climate change during the 21st century.The aim of the study is to define general features of climate change in the Antarctic based on climate indices simulated by regional climate models (RCMs). We used WCRP standard climate indices: frost days (number of days with a daily minimum temperature
