How does the El Nino and Affect the weather pattern affect the fishing industry of Peru?

La Niña is a climate pattern that describes the cooling of surface ocean waters along the tropical west coast of South America. La Nina is considered to be the counterpart to El Nino, which is characterized by unusually warm ocean temperatures in the equatorial region of the Pacific Ocean.


How does El Nio affect fishing?

General rule: El Nino = bad La Nina = good In South America, El Nino severely reduces the fish stocks by reducing nutrients that normally come up from the ocean depths. This devastatingly affects mainly the fishing industry of South America because without the upwellings, many fish and/or sea animals die from lack of food. El Nino causes a disturbance in the crucial food chain. Not sure about the impact on fish in Oceania though; just droughts, bushfires and general hardship.
