Switch Between El Nino and La Nina is Caused by Subsurface ... - Nature
2019年9月11日 · Here, we demonstrate that the switch between El Nino and La Nina is caused by a subsurface ocean wave propagating from western Pacific to central and eastern Pacific and then triggering...
'Uncharted territory': El Niño to flip to La Niña in what could be …
2024年4月20日 · El Niño is likely to give way soon, ushering in a quick switch to its opposite atmospheric and ocean pattern, La Niña. For the U.S., this climatological flip-flop will likely mean a...
Switch Between El Nino and La Nina is Caused by Subsurface …
2019年9月11日 · We have demonstrated highly robust evidence that the switch between El Nino and La Nina is caused by an ocean subsurface wave propagating along thermocline from western Pacific to central and eastern Pacific, and then triggering the development of SST anomaly there.
Colorado Climate Center - ENSO - Colorado State University
The El Niño - Southern Oscillation (also known as ENSO) refers to a cyclical pattern observed in the tropical Pacific Ocean. There are three phases of ENSO - El Niño, La Niña, and Neutral. These phases relate to the ocean temperature anomalies that are occurring at any given time.
Switch Between El Nino and La Nina is Caused by Subsurface ... - PubMed
2019年9月11日 · Here, we demonstrate that the switch between El Nino and La Nina is caused by a subsurface ocean wave propagating from western Pacific to central and eastern Pacific and then triggering development of SST anomaly. This is based on analysis of all ENSO events in the past 136 years using multiple long-term observational datasets.
La Niña switch expected to fuel extreme weather later this year
2024年6月3日 · The El Niño Pacific Ocean warming effect that has contributed to a spike in global temperatures is expected to swing to its opposite La Niña cooling phase from late summer, say weather...
What are El Nino and La Nina? - NOAA's National Ocean Service
El Niño and La Niña are two opposing climate patterns that break these normal conditions. Scientists call these phenomena the El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) cycle. El Niño and La Niña can both have global impacts on weather, wildfires, ecosystems, and economies.
Contrasting Transition Complexity Between El Niño and La Niña ...
2020年7月29日 · The observed El Niño and La Niña exhibit different complexities in their event-to-event transition patterns. The El Niño is dominated in order by episodic, cyclic, and multiyear transitions, but the reversed order is found in the La Niña. A subtropical Pacific onset mechanism is used to explain this difference.
What is the La Niña effect? How is it different from El Niño?
2024年3月4日 · While El Niño and La Niña are among several factors influencing climate at higher latitudes, their effects are most pronounced during wintertime. This information is crucial for weather forecasting and understanding the broader impacts of climate variability.
El Niño and La Niña represent opposite extremes in the El Niño/Southern Oscillation (ENSO). The ENSO cycle refers to the coherent and sometimes very strong year-to-year variations in sea-surface temperatures, rainfall, surface air pressure, and
