El Niño is a climate pattern that describes the unusual warming of surface waters along the tropical west coast of South America. El Nino has an impact on ocean temperatures‚ the speed and strength of ocean currents‚ the health of coastal fisheries‚ and local weather from Australia to South America. El Niño events occur irregularly at two- to seven-year intervals. However‚ it is not a regular cycle‚ or strictly predictable in the sense that ocean tides are. El Niño has long been recognized

States. El Nino is one of the largest scientific phenomenons that scientists have ever explored. The main concepts of El Nino are very simple and there are many variations‚ causes‚ affects‚ and relationships to study. The main idea behind El Nino is that the wind changes direction across the Pacific Ocean. In a non El Nino year (normal)‚ the trade winds blow from east to west across the ocean‚ from North and South America towards the tropical regions of the Pacific Ocean. In an El Nino year‚ the

El Nino is a short time change in the climate in the pacific ocean. You can see the effects in both the air and water. The ocean will heat up a few degrees. The air therefore heats up to because the heat comes of the water and heats up the air. The heavy storms move to the east. These are small effects that can make a huge difference on the world’s climate. El Nino causes unusual warming of the surface waters of the oceans in the tropical pacific. One part is called the Southern Oscillation

very closely been monitoring the possibilities of El Niño this Monsoon. In fact we had even put up an article on our website (Skymetweather.com) in February saying that 2014 could be an El Niño year‚ which would trigger a poor Monsoon in India. And as we enter mid-April‚ these observations are turning out to be more accurate. Other meteorological agencies across the world are also very strongly pointing towards the likelihood of an El Niño weather pattern this year. According to a media report

El Niño & La Niña It should be recognized that the strong weather pattern called El-Nino-Southern Oscillation‚ or ENSO‚ is unfortunately an unavoidable occurrence. This weather formation is known as an essential process for maintaining long-term global climate stability throughout the year. El Nino and La Nina‚ two phenomenal and impacting events‚ generally occur in the ocean surface temperature across the central and eastern tropical Pacific. However these two weather extremes are two entirely

For more than a decade‚ this model had outperformed all others in predicting El Niños to come. 20.
