B. El Nino How it happens: Pacific Ocean water temperature changes This changes wind patterns

B. El Nino Effects: Brings flooding to regions near the Pacific Ocean. Causes mudslides and reduces fishing industry

B. El Nino - Frayer Definition (p. 57) Social Impact Economic Impact Picture EL NINO

El Nino – Research Analysis Access the article below: Article Click where it says global impacts and choose additional articles if necessary. Task  Create a list of the positive and negative effects of El Nino.  Include at least five effects (it doesn’t matter the breakdown of events just have 5 total, example: 4 positive, 1 negative)
