El Nino-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is the Earth's strongest source of year-to-year climate variability, whose center of action, although being in the tropical Pacific, influences the global climate, impacting also security aspects. ENSO is commonly described as an irregular oscillation of the ...
El Nino is part of a natural cycle, according to Sky News weather presenter Jo Wheeler. She said: "ENSO - the El Nino-Southern Oscillation - warms and cools the tropical Pacific in a rotation that lasts between one and three years, impacting weather conditions across the world. "...
La Niña - the cold phase of the El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) - has a strong influence on the world's weather, just like its "warm phase" counterpart. Quick Facts It is a large-scale climate pattern associated with coole...
El Niño is sometimes referred to as ENSO for El Niño–Southern Oscillation. The Southern Oscillation is a seesaw of air pressures on the eastern and western halves of the Pacific. See El Niño Pattern chart. Q. What is La Niña? A. La Niña is essentially the opposite of El ...
This paper explains what the El Nino Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is and how it affects the environment and economic activities. A brief description of the huge cholera outbreak that swept Peru and other countries in the region in 1991 and the following years is presented. The possible link betw...
La Niña and El Niño are cycles of the El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO). The ENSO state is determined by water temperatures in the eastern and central Pacific.

Some of these modes, such as El Nino-Southern Oscillation (ENSO), are quasi-regular and have some longer-term predictive skill; others like the Arctic and Antarctic Oscillation are chaotic and generally unpredictable beyond a few weeks. Studies using general circulation models indicate that internal...
Here’s a look at what these weather events are, why they happen, and whether scientists think they’re getting stronger.
The warming of the waters caused by El Niño lasts for several months and alternates with a cooling phase, which is called La Niña (“The Little Girl”), with similar recurrence. In scientific circles, the term El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is used, which encompasses the combinat...
