Zusammenfassung:	ABSTRACT Evaluations of measurements of the tropospheric surface condensation nuclei at the German Antarctic station for the last 8 years are presented. They show clearly the annual variation of the concentration with a maximum in austral summer, as previously seen by other investigators. In addition, a pronounced increase of the concentration of 9.63% per year has been found. The size distributions of the condensation nuclei of measurements over 2 years are evaluated and discussed. On average, they are of mono‐modal shape, but individually most of them show a bimodal shape.
