La Niña is characterized by cooler-than-average sea surface temperatures in the central and eastern Pacific Ocean. It typically occurs every few years and can last for several months to over a year. La Niña often influences weather patterns globally, leading to increased rainfall in some regions, like Southeast Asia, and droughts in others, such as the southwestern United States. This phenomenon is part of the larger El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) cycle, which also includes El Niño and neutral phases.
