El Niño

El Niño weakens India's monsoon, but only 7 of 16 years since 1950 saw below-normal rainfall. La Niña, its cooler counterpart, generally brings above-normal rains, except in some northern and northeastern regions

El Niño known for its global impact, is expected to fade away by June, paving the way for the emergence of the La Niña climate pattern later in the year. Recent observations indicate a weakening of El Niño, with below-average sea surface temperatures

दक्षिणी ब्राज़ील में मूसलाधार बारिश के कारण आई ज़बरदस्त बाढ़ और भूस्खलन का कहर जारी है। दक्षिण ब्राज़ील (Brazil) में बाढ़ से मरने वालों की संख्या बढ़कर 75 हो गई है, जबकि 100 से अधिक लोग लापता हैं।

In their pursuit of improved water conservation strategies along the Colorado River, scientists are now examining the influence of mountainous regions on how El Niño and La Niña events affect precipitation in the western part of North America.

NASA’s Sea Level Change Science Team has found that if a strong El Niño develops this winter, it could lead to tidal flooding in many countries, particularly in cities along the U.S. West Coast.

The World Meteorological Organization (WMO) has recently reported that the current El Niño event is likely to persist until at least April 2024. This phenomenon is expected to influence weather patterns

The accompanying map, created by the Famine Early Warning Systems Network (FEWS NET), illustrates the anticipated influence of El Niño on key crops such as wheat, corn, rice, soybeans, and sorghum.

The Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is a critical annual climate phenomenon that alternates between the warm El Niño and cold La Niña phases, influencing sea surface temperatures and weather patterns across tropical regions.

The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has forecast that El Niño may occur in the Pacific Ocean in July. El Niño causes warmer temperatures and can cause changes in rainfall patterns.

The presence of the El Niño meteorological phenomenon is indisputable, as evidenced by the temperature anomalies observed in the Pacific Ocean.
