摘要

The central and eastern tropical Pacific experience vast and erratic warming or cooling when El Niño/La Niña, an oceanic event, occurs. There are important ramifications to this phenomenon, including a discernible change in weather regime throughout the Pacific. Along with variations in the strength of trade winds over the Pacific, these changes include increased convection and cloudiness over the region of the central tropical Pacific. Numerous research works have emphasized the extensive effects of El Niño/La Niña.
