• Pacific OceanRelated: It links ocean circulation to major shifts in Pacific weather.

• Marine heatwaveRelated: ENSO can shift regional ocean temperatures and influence marine heatwave likelihood.

• Ocean circulationRelated: Its shifts in Pacific circulation alter weather across much of the world.

• Climate variabilityBroader topic: Its El Niño and La Niña phases drive prominent year-to-year shifts in global temperature and rainfall.

• Indonesian ThroughflowRelated: Its Pacific sea-level and wind changes alter the pressure gradient that drives the throughflow.

• Ocean heat transportRelated: Its shifts in tropical Pacific heat distribution alter weather patterns worldwide.

• Tropical forestRelated: Its rainfall shifts can intensify drought and fire in tropical forests.

• Climate change in AfricaRelated: El Niño and La Niña alter African rainfall patterns and interact with longer-term climate trends.

• Humboldt CurrentNarrower topic: Its phases reorganize winds and ocean conditions that influence the current and its fisheries.

• King penguinRelated: Its effects on regional ocean conditions can influence food supply around some colonies.

• Pacific Decadal OscillationCompared with: ENSO is shorter-lived and tropical, though it can influence the North Pacific PDO pattern.

• Rossby waveRelated: Equatorial Rossby waves redistribute warm water and contribute to the ocean’s adjustment during ENSO.

• East Asian monsoonRelated: Its phases alter western Pacific circulation and can shift East Asian monsoon rainfall.

• South Asian monsoonCompared with: It is not a monsoon, but its phases can strengthen or weaken South Asian rainfall.

• Asian monsoonCompared with: Its changing Pacific conditions can strengthen or weaken South Asian monsoon rainfall.

• Southern AfricaRelated: Its phases can alter rainfall and drought risk across southern Africa.

• Extreme weatherRelated: Its phases shift the odds of droughts, floods, and storms across many regions.

• Lake TiticacaRelated: Its phases can alter rainfall and drought risk in the Titicaca basin.

• North PacificRelated: Its tropical shifts influence North Pacific weather and circulation.

• South Pacific OceanRelated: Its warm and cool phases reorganize winds, rainfall, and currents across the South Pacific.

• Australian monsoonRelated: ENSO shifts tropical circulation and often changes northern Australia’s monsoon rainfall.

• Central ChileRelated: Its phases can sharply alter rainfall and drought risk in Central Chile.

• Southwest monsoonRelated: El Niño often suppresses Indian monsoon rainfall, though the relationship varies between seasons.

• Tropical AmericasRelated: Its changing phases alter rainfall, drought, and fire risk across the region.

• Luzon StraitRelated: Its changing winds and currents can alter water exchange through the strait.

• Climate change in IndonesiaRelated: El Niño can amplify Indonesian drought and fire risk, interacting with long-term warming.

• Dry seasonRelated: Its phases can shift rainfall and intensify or weaken dry seasons in some regions.

• Wet seasonRelated: Its phases can alter wet-season rainfall and drought risk in distant regions.

• Outgoing longwave radiationRelated: Its shifts in tropical clouds and convection produce recognizable outgoing-radiation patterns.

• Sechura DesertRelated: Its warm phase can trigger the rainfall that temporarily transforms Sechura.

• Black Saturday bushfiresRelated: Drought linked to climate variability contributed to dry landscapes before the fires.

• Chilean SeaRelated: Its warm phases weaken upwelling and disrupt marine conditions off Chile.

• Climate variability and changeBroader topic: Its irregular phases produce prominent year-to-year climate fluctuations.

• Effects of climate change on oceansCompared with: ENSO causes natural ocean fluctuations that can amplify or temporarily mask climate trends.
