El Nino y La Nina

Diego A Garcia 8th period

El Niño

El Niño happens when water temperature in the Pacific Ocean becomes warmer than normal. This warm water changes pressure, weakens the wind, and slows ocean currents. The extra heat and energy in the ocean moves toward the Americas, causing more rain in places like South America and sometimes stronger hurricanes. Warmer surface temperatures also affect weather around the world.

La Niña

La Niña is the opposite of El Niño. During La Niña, water temperature in the Pacific Ocean becomes cooler than normal. Strong winds push warm water west, increasing cold currents near South America. This changes air pressureand moves ocean energy differently. Many areas get less rain, while some places experience stronger hurricane seasons and cooler surface temperatures.
