La Nina pushed all of this warm water out of the ocean and onto land masses like Australia, California, and South America, all of which experienced the highest amount of precipitation ever recorded. Areas like the southern half of the continental United States, Ecuador, and Peru experienced ...
The trade winds that blow from east to west intensify during La Nina. The 1997–98 El Nino was the first to be systematically tracked from beginning to end. The 1997–1998 events had an impact on many areas; Peru and California had significant rain and flooding, whereas the Philippines, Ma...
La Nina, which will mean more favorable winds for hurricane development, will mix with a "warmer-than-normal tropical Atlantic" to "provide a more conducive dynamic and thermodynamic environment for hurricane formation and intensification."
El Nino and La Nina episodes have been shown in numerous studies to have large scale and regional impacts on weather patterns and seasonal climate averages. This study reviews the observed values of various weather parameters in the Central California interior in order to see what, if any, ...

As the surface temperature of the ocean cools, it brings that cool air around the world and has an effect on our weather, even in Minnesota. Get the 106.9 KROC FM Newsletter! When La Niña Will Arrive in the US Early on, experts were predicting that the US would see the effects of ...
El Nino and La Nina effects on reproductive cycle of the pearl oyster Pinctada mazatlanica (Hanley, 1856) (Pteriidae) at Isla Espiritu Santo in the Gulf of... The impact of El Nino (1997-1998) and La Nina (1998-1999) on the reproductive cycle of the pearl oyster Pinctada mazatlanica...
El Nino/La Nina What is El Nino? From NOAA website El Nino was originally recognized by fishermen off the coast of South America as the appearance of unusually warm water in the Pacific Ocean, occurring near the beginning of the year. El Nino means The Little Boy or Christ child in ...
“I would not infer from that that climate change isn’t actually causing more El Niño emergence,” Roundy said. “It’s just that nature itself has such strong swings on its own. So we can get multiple La Nina events, and maybe in 40 or 50 years we’ll be seeing the opposite.”...
Monsoon seasonswill be more intense in La Niña years, while the western equatorial portions of South America may be indrought conditions. In the United States, the states of Washington and Oregon may see increased precipitation while portions of California, Nevada, and Colorado may see drier co...
