Weather pattern La Ni\u00f1a good or bad?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n<div class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-post-date\"><time datetime=\"2021-12-02T20:13:00+05:30\">2nd December 2021<\/time><\/div>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:19px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-verse\" style=\"font-size: 18px; text-align: justify;\">\n<summary class=\"wo-block-verse\" style=\"font-size: 18px; text-align: center;\">Read more<br><br><\/summary>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-verse\" style=\"font-size: 18px; text-align: justify;\">Year 2021 is that of La Ni\u00f1a. To understand La Ni\u00f1a we have to understand El Ni\u00f1o first. What is El Ni\u00f1o?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-verse\" style=\"font-size: 18px; text-align: justify;\">The El Ni\u00f1o effect is caused by the increase in surface temperature of the ocean on the Peru coast. During normal years, cold currents move from the Peru coast towards Australia. This cold water upwelling brings a lot of nutrients and planktons (food for fishes) from deep below, thereby increasing fish resources in Peru. These cold winds move from Peru to the warm western pacific pool in Australia, where it causes heavy rainfall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-verse\" style=\"font-size: 18px; text-align: justify;\">Due to an unusual increase in temperature on the Peru coast, the normal condition is reversed, resulting in what we call the El Ni\u00f1o effect. What happens is that warm water does not allow the upwelling of cold water from deep below. It causes low pressure, and winds start to move away from Australia towards Peru. The phenomenon causes drought-like conditions near Australia and also affects the rainfall patterns. El Ni\u00f1o causes arid conditions both in India and Australia. But the effect will be seen across the globe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/polscienceweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Copy-of-Copy-of-Untitled-2-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"climate change el nino\" class=\"wp-image-4601\" srcset=\"https:\/\/polscienceweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Copy-of-Copy-of-Untitled-2-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/polscienceweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Copy-of-Copy-of-Untitled-2-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/polscienceweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Copy-of-Copy-of-Untitled-2-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/polscienceweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Copy-of-Copy-of-Untitled-2-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/polscienceweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Copy-of-Copy-of-Untitled-2-585x585.jpg 585w, https:\/\/polscienceweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Copy-of-Copy-of-Untitled-2-640x640.jpg 640w, https:\/\/polscienceweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Copy-of-Copy-of-Untitled-2.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-verse\" style=\"font-size: 18px; text-align: justify;\">La Ni\u00f1a is opposite of El Ni\u00f1o. In other words, La Ni\u00f1a years exaggerate the normal pattern, strengthening the normal situation, i.e., the appearance of the colder waters than average off the west coast of South America. A very strong La Ni\u00f1a can bring devastating news to regions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"568\" src=\"https:\/\/polscienceweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Untitled-1410-x-782-px-1024x568.png\" alt=\"What is La Ni\u00f1a?\" class=\"wp-image-5964\" srcset=\"https:\/\/polscienceweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Untitled-1410-x-782-px-1024x568.png 1024w, https:\/\/polscienceweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Untitled-1410-x-782-px-300x166.png 300w, https:\/\/polscienceweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Untitled-1410-x-782-px-768x426.png 768w, https:\/\/polscienceweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Untitled-1410-x-782-px-1170x649.png 1170w, https:\/\/polscienceweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Untitled-1410-x-782-px-585x324.png 585w, https:\/\/polscienceweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Untitled-1410-x-782-px.png 1410w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-verse\" style=\"font-size: 18px; text-align: justify;\">For some farmers in Australia, La Ni\u00f1a&#8217;s plenty of rainfall boost the production of certain crops, while for others, too much of it damages their crops and fruits. The risk of flooding is also witnessed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-verse\" style=\"font-size: 18px; text-align: justify;\">Overall, La Ni\u00f1a temporarily could lower down the global average temperature. 2021 would have been warmer without the cooling effect of two back-to-back La Ni\u00f1a events. But the increasing global temperature can make La Ni\u00f1as and El Ni\u00f1os effects even more severe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:16px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.economist.com\/the-economist-explains\/2021\/12\/02\/what-is-la-nina\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">The Economist<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How will it affect the winter weather?
