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 in order to understand and assess Antarctic variability in the context of global climate change. The programme also aims to study the impact of climate variability on Kerguelen's pelagic ecosystem.
