Antarctica is an important regulator of the planet's climate, capable of influencing - scientists say - things as distant as the blooming of cherry trees in Japan or how clear the skies are over Chile's Atacama Desert.

"What happens in Antarctica will determine the climate in other regions very far from this remote continent," scientist Edgardo Vega told EFE.
