SCIENCE
Ms Smith because protest in Santiago because Chile is flooded more than normal. In a fish store in the center of Lima, the price of certain species of fish is doubled. In
Rosario Stock Exchange, in turn, triggers the future value of some
cereal because this year it is estimated that the harvest will not meet
expectations. Is it possible perhaps that these events are connected? Well, could be. The
phenomenon "El Niño" rose water temperature in the American Pacific
coasts and climate, overcome by so great alteration, succumbs to the
chaos.
El
Niño is a cyclical climate phenomenon erratically is a change in the
movement patterns of ocean currents in the tropics causing consequently
global havoc due to heavy rains, affecting mainly South America, both in
the Atlantic coast and in the Pacific. The
scientific name for the phenomenon El Niño Southern Oscillation (El
Niño-Southern Oscillation, ENSO, for its acronym in English). Phenomenon is explained by the Earth's rotation movement.
During
El Niño, the trade winds weaken or stop blowing, the sea temperature
maximum shifts to the current system Chilean-Peruvian (perceptible
increase in water temperature) which is relatively cool, and the minimum
sea temperature moves to Southeast Asia. This causes increased air pressure in Southeast Asia and South America decreased. All
this change occurs at an interval of six months, approximately from
June to November, producing strong alterations in climate.
The consequences of this climatic phenomenon leads to random regions of South America:
- Losses fishing certain species and increased in others.
- Intense cloud formation generated in the intertropical convergence zone.
- Wet periods.
- Low atmospheric pressure.
- Agricultural losses.
