Thee Baseline: Normal Conditions in thee Equatorial Pacific Ocean

To understand thee extremes of El Niño and La Niña, one mutt first exisish thee baseline quentice; normal exiculations; conditions. The equatorial Pacific is nott a uniform body of water; it is criterized by a dramatic east-west asymetry in temperatur, compations, andd wind Patterns.

Thee Walker Circulation andTrade Winds

Te prymary engine of the tropical climate system im thee Walker Circulation. Intensie solar heating thee western Pacific, near considesia and northern Australia, causes warm, moist air to rise. Thi rising air creats a region of low atmosferyc presure and fuels towering thunderstorms and abentant rainfall. This zone is known as the Western Acific Warm Pool, the largets expanse of consistently warm water on the planet (SSTs exceequicing 28 ° C).

As this air rises and reaches the upper atmosphere (thee tropopause), it diverges and flows eastward across thee Pacific. Eventually, this air cool ande sinks over the cooler waters of thee eastern Pacific, near thee coast of South America. This sinking air creates a zone of high pressure.

Fizykal Features of El Niño: The Warm Phase

El Niño represents a breakdown of thee normal state. The term, Spanish for representation quote little boy represents; (often referring to thee Christt child because thee fenomenon often appears around Christmas), is definite d by a sustained warming of thee central and d eastern tropical Pacific Ocean.
