Zusammenfassung:Doran et al. reply - Turner et al. do not find fault with our main focus - the rapid ecological response to recent cooling in the McMurdo Dry Valleys. The essence of their comment is that the spatial interpolation of the Antarctic continental data set (our Fig. 2) does not provide a meaningful picture of recent temperature trends. Although any interpolation is open to question, we note the following points.
