What major disasters will El Nino bring to China?

The main disasters that El Nino phenomenon will bring to our country: in a certain period of time, abnormal weather appears in the provinces and cities in central and eastern China; The abnormal ocean current caused by El Nino phenomenon has a very strong impact on the fishery in the eastern coastal cities of China. In China, there have been a large number of cases in which fry, seafood culture and cultivated crops died due to abnormal ocean currents.

1998 Summer rainstorm and flood in the Yangtze River basin are closely related to 1997- 1998 El Nino phenomenon. At that time, the strong influence of El Nino lasted from the first half of 1997 to the first half of 1998.

1998 The global annual average temperature reached 14.5℃, setting a record since modern meteorological records. That year, China also suffered a catastrophic flood that was rare in history. That year was called the strongest El Nino phenomenon in the 20th century.

El Nino cycle

El Nino is a periodic natural phenomenon, which occurs about once every seven years. Through the study of global climate, scientists believe that El Nino is not an isolated natural phenomenon, but an aspect of global climate anomaly.

In normal years, the Pacific coast on the west coast of Peru is controlled by a cold ocean current, and there is a large natural fishing ground. Once there is a climate anomaly, the cold ocean current in the eastern Pacific will be replaced by the warm ocean current.
