Enso results from dynamic and thermodynamic interactions. These interactions happen in the atmosphere, oceans, and land surfaces, although specificallywhat causes ENSO is unclear. Aside from that, scientists believe air pressure changes and wind currents play a vital role in starting El Nino/ Southern Oscillation. Some researcher think greenhouse gases may play a role. Others say underwater activity; underwater earthquakes for example, cause El Nino.
