What is the Nino phenomenon like? Did all this weather phenomenon happen this year?

On February 25th, 20 15, the World Meteorological Organization announced that the global surface temperature in 20 15 may be the highest on record, which is caused by strong El Nino phenomenon and global warming caused by human activities.

Ninor phenomenon

El Nino warm current is an abnormal natural phenomenon in the Pacific Ocean, and it is a famous Peruvian cold current flowing from south to north on the west coast of South America and the eastern part of the South Pacific. Every June 1 1 to March of the following year is the summer in the southern hemisphere. The water temperature in the southern hemisphere generally rises, and the equatorial warm current flowing eastward strengthens. At this time, the global pressure belt and wind belt move south, and the northeast trade wind passes through the equator and is deflected to the left by the self-deflection force (also called rotational deflection force) in the southern hemisphere to enter the northwest monsoon. The northwest monsoon not only weakens the southeast trade wind, which is near the west coast of Peru, but also weakens or even disappears the cold water flooding of Peru's cold current. It also blows the equatorial warm current with higher water temperature to the south, which makes the water temperature of Peru's cold current abnormally rise. This quiet and unstable ocean current is called "El Nino Warm Current".
