El Niño is a weather pattern that forms in the?
El Niño is a weather pattern that forms in the tropical Pacific Ocean. It is characterized by warmer-than-average sea surface temperatures, which can lead to disruptions in normal weather patterns around the world.
Colder-than-normal Pacific Ocean surface temperatures?

How is la Nina triggered?
colder than average surface temperatures in the eastern pacific
What is the pattern of warmer-than-normal pacific ocean surface temperatures?
its warm sometimes but sometimes it could really get cold because of the water being so close by
How in a la Nina event triggered?
colder than average surface temperatures in the eastern pacific

Temperature of ocean currents off Canadas west coast?
Along Canada's west coast, the surface temperatures of the Pacific Ocean rarely get warmer than 15ºC. The ocean temperatures in the North Pacific tend to be warmer than those in the South Pacific. This seems strange because the surface waters in the South Pacific are definitely warmer.
Describe how ocean surface temperatures change from the northern pacific ocean southward to antarctica?
Ocean surface temperatures generally decrease from the Northern Pacific Ocean southward to Antarctica. In the Northern Pacific, warmer waters are influenced by the North Pacific Current and the Kuroshio Current, which bring warmer temperatures. As one moves southward, particularly past the equator, the waters cool significantly due to the influence of the cold Humboldt Current along the western coast of South America and the Southern Ocean's circumpolar currents. By the time you reach Antarctica, the surface temperatures are among the coldest in the world, often near freezing.
Which of the following statements about sea surface temperature is evidence of an El Nino year?
greater than normal in the Eastern Pacific
The weather pattern caused when trade winds return to the pacific?
the weather pattern caused when trade winds do not blow across the Pacific and the surface temperature of the ocean increases
Which statement describes sea surface temperatures along the South American coast and Pacific trade winds during El Nino?
During El Niño, sea surface temperatures along the South American coast are warmer than usual, and the Pacific trade winds weaken or even reverse their typical direction. This deviation from normal conditions is a key indicator of an El Niño event.
