Reading about the ENSO cycle in the textbook and having the professor explain how this works still left me confused. I am a very visual learner, and this helped me so much! Thank you!
It was named by the fisherman in South America because when La Niña happens they have a great fishing season, 2020 being that bad fisherman season for Australia as the nutrients are brought to the surface on the eastern side of pacific and warm currents t9 Australia.
El Niño and La Niña are opposite phases of what is known as the El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) cycle. The ENSO cycle is a scientific term that describes the fluctuations in temperature between the ocean and atmosphere in the east-central Equatorial Pacific (approximately between the International Date Line and 120 degrees West).
La Niña is sometimes referred to as the cold phase of ENSO and El Niño as the warm phase of ENSO. These deviations from normal surface temperatures can have large-scale impacts not only on ocean processes, but also on global weather and climate.
El Niño and La Niña episodes typically last nine to 12 months, but some prolonged events may last for years. While their frequency can be quite irregular, El Niño and La Niña events occur on average every two to seven years. Typically, El Niño occurs more frequently than La Niña.
Concise, brief, well researched, no tedious clickbait sensationalism.... I love this video. Also: kudos to your digital arts team. the graphics were perfectly servicable and illustrated the content well. Id rate this video a perfect 7/10
This phenomenon occurs every three to four years and its effects on the climate through their influence on several factors and the interaction of the atmosphere with the ocean include El Nino and through their impact on trade winds seasonal increase or lower depends on this phenomenon, thanks to this video we have learned a lot from him
El nino is a weather phenomena which has global character, it is a system that involves hydrological cycles, what you saw was not volcano but representation of warm waters, awesome video thankyou met.
Thank you for that information. We are also camping next week in Cornwall so to know a weather professional is braving it also is a huge comfort. Roll on less loops!!
Can you please explain Ekman Transport in relation with El nino. What and how things happen at Peruvian Coast? Trade winds move from East to West, so due the Ekman transport. water beneath should move 90 degrees to the direction of the wind. But when we see the El Nino explanation, it says, Trade wind leads to piling up of warm water in Northern Australia and UPWELLING takes place at Peruvian Coast. I am confused, where is Ekman Transport when trade winds are moving the ocean current in their direction only leading to accumulation of hot water in N Australia. Please help.
This was great! Thank you so much. Now I feel like I really have a better grasp on both concepts of this weather phenomenon. I’ve subscribed to your channel and will visit regularly for more lessons. Excellent work.
Hey! My name is ElNino and my Sisters name is LaNina! She does the same thing that I do, just a lot more extreme, so, I form, by atmospheric pressure in the eastern pacific, when this happens, easterlies weaken, then, upwelling stops, several circulation cells form, and then air rises over the eastern pacific, and then subsides over Australia and Indonesia 🇮🇩 I memorize that for my exam tom 😄🙈 how do you think I did?
I'm confused about how the upwelling process. I can’t wrap my head around how the warmer water pushes the cold water. I can only imagine it as weight displacing the cold water, but how can hot water be denser? I know I'm misunderstanding something but I can’t figure it out
so proud and happy with all explanation from met office. btw, can u help me explain about what is monsoon? what's the impact for the rainfall and how does it work? how about the variability and interaction with another phenomena? and can u help me to explain about the predictability of monsoon? Monsoon is very interesting I think, but I wish u all could give me a little explanation with your awesome video. waiting for it. best regards from me and thankyou so much met office. :)
I love being a meteorologist. there's always something "wowing" to learn and it keeps you humble because you realize how much you CAN't control when most of the world is desperately trying to control and own everything and everyone else.
Sorry but I have a doubt. In 2:03 u said about "WEAKENED TRADE WINDS". I just wanted to know why do the trade winds weaken? Kindly put some light. Eagerly waiting for your reply. Thank You.
The easterly trade winds are driven by a surface pressure pattern of higher pressure in the eastern Pacific and lower pressure in the west. When this pressure gradient weakens, so do the trade winds. The weakened trade winds allow warmer water from the western Pacific to surge eastward, so the sea level flattens out.
I have a confusion. It may sound very silly, but if Australia is in eastern side of the globe so why is it said that trade winds are flowing eastwards towards southern America?
You have explained El Nino well. But some viewers get confused because of the way you presented it. Initially you are explaining normal phenomenon ( which is similar to La Nina) . Later you are explaining El Nino ( but didn't explicitly mention " El Nino ").
Correct me if i am wrong , when he was explaining the normal conditions. Did he make a mistake by saying that the warm water piles up at north and south america when it should be asia and australia instead because the pacific ocean lies on the left of North and south america and the wind is moving from east to west.
Thank you for this very informative video. Climate & weather is very complex so grasping various topics can often be difficult. It seems it's actually atmospheric conditions that triggers both El Nino & La Nina. Sooo, how will the climate breakdown and the broken jet stream (north & south) affect these phenomena? Both El Nino & La Nina are confirmed by the status of sea-surface temps in the Pacific, but could both these events be predicted by the current state of the jet stream, or are the impacts of the jet stream too localised to impact global ocean temps? There is also the Indian Ocean & Atlantic Dipoles. I assume each of these phenomena have a knock-on effect on each other? Which has the strongest influence?
Is there a difference in the impact of the phenomenon on the global weather when it occurs in 1. Temperature is above average by one degree 2. Temperature is above average by more than two degree
Sir we know the air rises from the equatorial low and subsides in the sub tropical high so how the air is rising from the central pacific and subsiding at almost the same latitude at peru ?
They also effect the activity of tropical cyclones in different oceans. It creates a more favorable environment for tropical cyclone development in the eastern Pacific and some other areas, and less active in the northern Atlantic. It is or almost the opposite with a La Nina.
so basically, usually the warm water eventually causes rainfall around indonesia and australia and upwelling around the northwest part of south america. but when el nino happens the warm water doesn't have enough strength and stops in the middle of australia and south america and since it doesn't reach australia and indonesia there's not enough rainwater for them which causes droughts in indonesia. usually the rain falls on the western side of the pacific ocean but during el nino the rain ends up falling on the more eastern side, causing peru to be flooded. also I'd like to note el nino occurs around christmas and it's summer time in the southern half of the world during christmas. so el nino occurs during summer. on the contrary, when la nina happens the warm water goes too far into indonesia and australia which causes more than the usual amount of cold water to go towards south america. now does this mean la nina causes floods around indonesia and australia and droughts around northwest part of south america?
The scary thing we got highest temperatures 2022 June 19 in UK 40.3c on el Nina season. I can't believe how hot is going to be when el Nino arrives, maybe 45c if no more.
And i can't belive the highest temperature here in may is from the 24th of may 1889 with 29,0c, what's your point? Record high temperatures are records for a reason, the hit once and it takes a long time before it happens again, UK will struggle to reach 40c again for at least another 30 years if not more.
i liked this precisely way to explain the el nino phenomena ..its really important to know more about it because its in touch with important effects in our life like floods and drought..actually i didnt know about this phenomena before!!
@@PapaTrump Ok I agree size matters but being the second largest ocean there must have been some sign of disturbance if size being the only reason. So I don't believe only size is the reason or weakning of trade winds is the reason for indian ocean oscillation.
The real reason for El Ninos is easily explained in the new geological science called Plate Climatology. The origin of all El Ninos is due to a geological heat source from deep ocean active volcanic and hydrothermal systems near Papua New Guinea and the Soloman Island area! The collision of three continental plates allows magma up to 1200 degrees C to come in contact with the ocean water!
Gerald Kitzler which also occurs in other places on earth, especially in the Indian Ocean. Never actually heard it blamed on tectonic plates.However it’s due to the size that allows this to happen. The size of the ocean allows these variables to occur unchanged/without any interference from land.
Can we say El Nino is the reason for strong and frequent typhoon formation in the Pacific? cos I saw the El Nino record, it raised in a yr and went down as their cycle but the typhoon kept forming as they are low, actually Yolanda, one of the strongest typhoon was formed in 2013, El nino was low. I was worried bcos the number of Typhoons formed in the Pacific in 1950's are low compare today which is high.

This is the best easiest and most pedagogic explanation and simulation yet, and it was made 9 years ago. Bravo
very nice description of El-Nino and undersandable too in a simple way
I’m so sleepy. I couldn’t understand a single thing.
Then why did you write it now in the first place?
It´s because it´s not quite accurate
Me too
Exactly
I agree too
This was so helpful thanks so much, you do a much better job at explaining than any textbook I’ve read
