A scientific paper by a graduate student at the University of Texas Institute for Geophysics (UTIG) has explained why some El Niño and La Niña events last longer than others, a result that could help predict their worst effects. The paper, which was published in August in the Journal of Climate, shows that El Niño… Continue Reading New study gives hope for predicting long lasting El Niño and La Niña
