Probably not. Antarctica is the highest, driest, windiest, coldest, darkest and iciest continent on earth. It is inhospitable to any kind of animal life and there is no food chain.
There is no permanent population on the continent of Antarctica.
The current temperature in Antarctica can vary depending on the region, season, and time of day. Temperatures in Antarctica can range from -50°C to 0°C on average, with some locations experiencing even colder temperatures.
The population at the 2000 census was 492. That is the most recent I could find.
It is highly unlikely with the current climate. However, at times, such as during the Cretaceous period, Antarctica had a much warmer climate than it does not, even supporting forests. At that time, tornadoes may have been ocurred.
It seems your question got cut off. Could you please specify which population you are referring to?
You could say that Antarctica is on the southern side -- of earth, that is.
"Livable" is subjective. "Livable" to one person, may not be "livable" to another. There are millions of square miles of "livable" space in northern Maine and in the northern reaches of Canada. But you would have to be pretty self reliant to live there. For example, if you could live near a natural spring (for water), hunt (for food and clothing) and build your own home (for shelter) you would have everything you need to survive. You don't need cell phones, tv sets, music and computers to live. It may be boring, but a least you would survive.
You could row in the seas around Antarctica, but you'd probably freeze to death.
There is no native or permanent population on the Antarctic continent. People who live and work there temporarily may count into the 4-8,000 person range. In 2013, the population of planet earth was projected to be about 7.125 billion. Can you do the math?
We could try and help Antarctica by not poluting in the Atlantic Seas.
Anything and everything could be lost in Antarctica, as it is possible to lose anything and everything anywhere on earth.
