When El nino warms the pacific ocean what happens?
the fishing industry suffers
How much did the 1997 El Nino increase the water temperature in the pacific ocean?
ohh you know
How is the Philippines affected by the El Nino?
The Philippines are dryer on average during the El Nino phase, particularly in September-November. Effects on temperature are minimal.
What is the combination of temperature wind and water in the Pacific Ocean that causes heavy rain in some areas and drought in others?
El Nino
How do scientists tell when an el nino will occur?
Scientists can tell when an El Nino will occur if in the tropical Pacific Ocean, a network of buoys will indicate a change in temperature, currents and winds in the equatorial band. These collected data are evaluated by a computer designed to predict El Nino.

What is the name of a periodic reversal of the pattern of ocean currents and water temperature in the mid pacific region?

What natural event slows or reverses surface ocean currents of the pacific ocean?
El Nino (~over the n)
Why are el nino waters less dense than those of the surrounding ocean?
El Nino waters are less dense because the waters are warmer and warm water is less dense than cool water. Also, it constantly rains over the ocean during the El Nino, and rain water is less dense than ocean water.
Why was there fewer fish during El Nino?
There are fewer fish during El Nino because El Nino causes dramatic temperature fluctuations. This combined with rapidly rising or decreasing water levels lead fish to find a more stable environment in which to live.
How do scientists tell when an el nino will occur?
Scientists can tell when an El Nino will occur if in the tropical Pacific Ocean, a network of buoys will indicate a change in temperature, currents and winds in the equatorial band. These collected data are evaluated by a computer designed to predict El Nino.
El Nino is a condition that brings increased precipitation to the eastern Pacific Ocean basin when?
El Nino brings increase precipitation to the eastern Pacific Ocean during the late winter. It also increases precipitation in the early spring in the Eastern Pacific.
