A new study in Nature reveals alarming declines in insect and arthropod populations in pristine tropical forests, driven by ...

The study said long-term changes to the El Nino Southern Oscillation (ENSO) cycle, with more frequent and intense hot, dry El Nino events due to climate change, disrupt the natural balance between El ...

A quick crash course in a teleconnection, as the name implies: one piece of weather phenomena impacts others in different ...

Editor's Note: This story was updated at 10 a.m. EDT. on July 12 to note that the El Niño Southern Oscillation climate cycle, not a specific El Niño event, can be predicted well in advance.

El Niño and La Niña are considered the ocean part of ENSO, while the Southern Oscillation is its atmospheric changes. Meghna Mittal MEGHNA MITTAL is Deputy News Editor at Moneycontrol.

El Niño and La Niña are the warm and cool phases of a natural climate pattern across the tropical Pacific known as the El Niño-Southern Oscillation, or “ENSO” for short.

El Niño tends to cause heatwaves and droughts in southern Africa particularly. Cooling streaks indicate the potential for two Niña’s at once – Pacific and Atlantic, a rare event.

The El Niño-Southern Oscillation, or ENSO, is a phenomenon that can change atmospheric circulation, which can cause cooler or warmer weather. There are three states: El Niño, La Niña and neutral.

And the newest research suggests a double whammy: climate change may be changing the very nature of the El Niño-Southern Oscillation itself. It all begins on the other side of the world.

Indeed, the team found the largest declines in arthropods occurred in those that favor La Niña conditions. If El Niño is ...
