In this study, we evaluate the annual variation in teleseismic detection capability at Syowa Station (69.0°S, 39.6°E) located in East Antarctica, a variation that has been noted in previous studies. For the quantitative evaluation of the annual variation, we introduced a statistical model of a magnitude–frequency distribution of earthquakes covering the entire magnitude range. The annual variation in the model parameter that quantifies the detection capability was then estimated by using Bayesian analysis. In the estimation, we incorporated the annual variation in air temperature at the station and succeeded in clarifying the significant effect that the variation in temperature has on the teleseismic detection capability.
