The weather is simply to harsh to remain out in for very long.
The ice sheet that covers 98% of the Antarctic continent acts as a 'heat sink' for the earth's excess heat.
The climate of Antarctica is affected by its geographic position--it is on the south pole, so it gets no sun at all during the winter. There are also ocean currents, wind currents, and other things that affect the climate.
There are no animals on the Antarctic continent, except the sea birds and sea mammals that visit its beaches to breed. People live and work, temporarily on the continent, and tourists visit Antarctica today.

• it affected the animals • affects the landscape • it can affect the climate • it damages the ice • damages the climate And • changes Antarctica That area has been saved from the over imposing influence of human interference by its virtually unassailable climate. Antarctica has the only unspoiled sweet water in the whole world. This should be the number one in the cons list.
It was part of the exploration of the Australian continent, and has no effect on us today, except perhaps as an inspiration.
Yes, there are signs that the ozone hole is starting to heal due to global efforts to reduce ozone-depleting substances. As the ozone layer recovers, it will have a positive impact on the climate in Antarctica by reducing harmful UV radiation and stabilizing temperature gradients, which in turn will help mitigate some effects of climate change in the region.
There is no commercial fishing allowed south of 60 degrees south latitude, which includes the Southern Ocean which surrounds the Antarctic continent.
Yes they did have affect on his exploration.
Factors that affect the climate of Africa include proximity to the equator, the presence of mountain ranges, ocean currents, and the distribution of land and water. These elements influence temperature, rainfall patterns, and seasons across the continent.
No animals live on the Antarctic continent -- it's too cold to support any kind of food chain. In the spring and summer, however, sea animals including birds, come to the continent to breed.
Kansas City is in the interior of the North American continent, and San Francisco is on the west coast. Oceans have a moderating affect on climate.
