"While most of Antarctica cooled during the period 1981-2004, the Antarctic 
Peninsula where the Wilkins Ice Shelf lies warmed by about 1° C. Sea Surface 
Temperatures (SSTs) also warmed by about 1° C near the Antarctic Peninsula, 
and these warmer waters may be primarily responsible for the disintegration 
of the shelf. In the period 2005-2007, almost all of Antarctica warmed, 
canceling out much of cooling observed during 1981-2004 (Figure 2)."
