The El Nino is an unusual warm ocean conditionswhich have amazing effects on weather patterns around the world.
The El Nino can not be prevented. The El Nino bounces from South America across the Pacific Ocean and then across the Indian ocean to Africa and then bounces back to South America. Another name for it is "The southern ocean oscillation."
No, the El Nino is a climate pattern that occurs across the tropical Pacific Ocean on average every five years.
El Nino effects the weather most of all; last year, areas in the United States unaccustomed to snow got a foot or more due to the change in El Nino's current; this caused millions of dollars in damage.
The greatest impact is above normal precipitation in the winter, which occurs especially over the southern third of the state. This can bring on mudslides and enhanced beach erosion as storms hit more frequently. The effects on temperature are negligible, and can go either way.
El Nino-Southern Oscillation
El Nino-Southern Oscillation
El Nino is a coupled ocean-atmosphere oscillation. It has effects on most cities in the world.
El Nino is the warm phase of El Nino Southern Oscillation, with La Nina being the cool phase. It could be considered a quasi-periodic weather phenomenon.
The Philippines are dryer on average during the El Nino phase, particularly in September-November. Effects on temperature are minimal.
El nino is a weather pattern that can negatively impact the weather of the areas it affects. El nino typically impacts Mexico and the United States. The part of the world impacted is the Northern and Western Hemispheres.
El nino is an hot water ocean current. When it changes its normal course the global climate is affected. It creates increased rainfall.
