The El Niño event is spawned by warmer than average temperatures in the Central Pacific called the "Nino 3.4" region. When sea surface temperatures are warm here by more than 0.5C or higher for a few ...
AUSTIN, Texas (KXAN) – We’re getting our first look into next winter with the latest Climate Prediction Center ENSO (El Niño ...
La Niña conditions are weakening, transitioning to a neutral ENSO state expected to stabilize weather through summer. This change could impact global crop yields, especially in regions like the ...
As summer fades in South Africa, a burning question on the minds of many a farmer is how long the La Niña weather pattern will last and when will its dreaded El Niño sibling bare its fangs again?
Last year was the hottest year on record (Getty Images) The oscillation presents itself in three phases, including La Niña, El Niño and a neutral phase. While a La Niña event is characterized ...
Climate change is growing stronger and more robust, and the cooling, counter effects of La Nina may not be effective in a warmer future, climate scientists said, assessing current heat trends seen in ...
These fluctuations can be understood by El Niño and La Niña, the two climate patterns in the Pacific Ocean that affect global weather. They are opposite phases of the El Niño-Southern Oscillation ...
El Nino-Southern Oscillation (ENSO)-neutral conditions refer to periods in which neither El Nino nor La Niña is present, often coinciding with the transition between the two weather patterns, ...

Meanwhile, the probability of El Nino developing during this period is negligible. WHAT IS LA NINA? La Nina, characterised by cooler-than-average sea surface temperatures in the equatorial Pacific, ...
The term La Niña is used to define the phenomenon in which the water temperature of the Pacific Ocean periodically cools and produces a measurable shift in the weather pattern. El Niño is the opposite ...
Eastern and Atlantic Canada aren’t known to be “significantly” impacted by El Nino events, though such an event may reduce tropical cyclone activity in the Atlantic. Anomalies known to occur in La ...
