À propos de ce contenu audio
Every few years, the Pacific Ocean tips the balance, reshaping weather patterns across the entire planet.
In this episode of The Climate Translation, Dr. Mac breaks down the El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO), one of Earth’s most powerful and misunderstood climate systems. He explains how subtle shifts in ocean temperatures can alter global rainfall, disrupt marine ecosystems, and steer the jet stream, affecting weather from Australia to North America.
This episode separates myths from mechanics, clarifying what ENSO can and can’t do, why its impacts vary by region, and how climate change is adding strain to a natural system without replacing it. The result is a clearer picture of how short-term climate cycles interact with long-term warming, and why understanding that difference matters.
