Extended data:

Tierra del Fuego is located in the prevailing westerlies, so Tierra del Fuego presents a temperate maritime climate. In this way, it can be influenced by the prevailing northwest wind and get rich water vapor from the Pacific Ocean, but it is blocked by mountains. Less precipitation, higher latitude, cool and humid all year round.

Ushuaia is 3200 kilometers away from its capital, Buenos Aires, but only 800 kilometers away from Antarctica. It takes at least a week to get to Antarctica by boat from Australia, New Zealand and other places. It takes two days to sail from ushuaia and cross the Drake Strait. Therefore, ushuaia is an ideal starting point and supply base for exploring and inspecting Antarctica. This is the southernmost residence in the world.
