el niño and la niña wind patterns

The "El Niño" and "La Niña" are patterns of climatic conditions that occur in the Pacific Ocean. El Niño refers to a warming of the ocean surface temperatures, causing changes in the global atmospheric circulation and altering weather patterns. La Niña, on the other hand, is the opposite pattern, characterized by cooler ocean surface temperatures. Both El Niño and La Niña can have significant impacts on weather conditions around the world.
