Parts of Antarctica have experienced warming almost an order of magnitude greater than the global average over the past 50 years, with the Antarctic Peninsula ranking among the three fastest-warming regions on Earth. Antarctic ecosystems have been affected by the warming that has taken place. Perhaps the most notable impact has been a dramatic expansion of the two species of flowering plant that occur on the continent — Antarctic pearlwort and Antarctic hair grass

Abstract

Parts of Antarctica have experienced warming almost an order of magnitude greater than the global average over the past 50 years, with the Antarctic Peninsula ranking among the three fastest-warming regions on Earth. Antarctic ecosystems have been affected by the warming that has taken place. Perhaps the most notable impact has been a dramatic expansion of the two species of flowering plant that occur on the continent — Antarctic pearlwort and Antarctic hair grass
