The correct sentence is the last one (D).  They went to an outpost in Antarctica (main clause), which (subordinating conjunction)  has one of the harshest climates on the planet (subordinate clause). The reason that the first sentence (A) is incorrect, is because a semicolon is used to connect the two clauses. Semicolons should never be used with conjunctions. 

Answer:

the answer is D
