Objective This project aimed to set up a permanent observatory to monitor climate variability in the Kerguelen area by monthly occupation of two CTD stations. Its goal was to study the remote connection between local variability and ENSO events to understand and assess Antarctic variability in the context of global climate change. The programme also aimed to study the impact of climate variability on Kerguelen's pelagic ecosystem. The related programmes are: the following international programmes: CLIVAR, TOPEX/POSEIDON and JASON, European FP6 RD and French programmes: CLIVAR/PNEDC, GICC/MATE, Environment-life-society programme/CNRS, CNES/TOSCA, Mercator/Coriolis mission group.
