IMAGEN: Los mapas de la superficie del mar con la anomalía de temperatura en el Océano Pacífico durante una fuerte Niña (arriba, diciembre 1988) y El Niño (imagen de abajo,en diciembre de 1997).
What is the #ElNiño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) in a nutshell? Though ENSO is a single #climate phenomenon, it has three states, or phases, it can be in. The two opposite phases, “El Niño” and “La Niña,” require certain changes in both the ocean and the atmosphere because ENSO is a coupled climate phenomenon. “Neutral” is in the middle of the continuum.
