El Nino

INVESTIGATING EL NIÑO

People blame El Niño for all kinds of abnormal weather. One of the ways to detect an El Niño event is to look at sea surface temperature (SST). By observing SST through graphs and maps, you can track the growth of plant life and even begin to predict future El Niño events. Explore our El Niño activity and download our Teacher’s Guide.
