Detailed explanation-2: -El Niño and the Southern Oscillation, also known as ENSO is a periodic fluctuation in sea surface temperature (El Niño) and the air pressure of the overlying atmosphere (Southern Oscillation) across the equatorial Pacific Ocean.

Detailed explanation-4: -El Niño and La Niña are the warm and cool phases of a recurring climate pattern across the tropical Pacific-the El Niño-Southern Oscillation, or “ENSO” for short.

Detailed explanation-5: -El Nino Southern Oscillation (ENSO) This is the periodic change in pressure conditions which is referred to as the Southern Oscillation. These changes in the pressure conditions being developed in the Pacific and Indian oceans are connected with the phenomenon of El Nino.
