The opposite of an El Nino, La Nina is formed by cooler-than-normal subsurface waters in the central and eastern tropical Pacific. On average, it occurs every 3-6 years, but atmospheric changes, effects of industrialised nations and many other factors are gradually changing the frequency and length of La Nina.
