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.
