Abstract

The main types of cyclonic processes in the troposphere above Graham Land as well as the most typical hydrometeorological regime, satellite images of cloudiness, and the total ozone content at Vernadsky are presented. The examples of some cyclonic processes both at the Antarctic Peninsula and South America are described. Recommendations for the short-term weather forecasts are given and the method worked out in the Ukrainian Research Hydrometeorological Institute is proposed for the long-range weather forecast.
