El Niño/ɛlˈniːnjoʊ/(Spanish pronunciation: [elˈniɲo]) is the warm phase of theEl Niño Southern Oscillation(commonly called ENSO) and is associated with a band of warm ocean water that develops in the central and east-central equatorialPacific(between approximately theInternational Date Lineand 120°W), including off the Pacific coast ofSouth America. El Niño Southern Oscillation refers to the cycle of warm and cold temperatures, as measured bysea surface temperature, SST, of the tropical central and eastern Pacific Ocean. El Niño is accompanied by highair pressurein the western Pacific and low air pressure in the eastern Pacific. The cool phase of ENSO is called "La Niña" with SST in the eastern Pacific below average and air pressures high in the eastern andlow in western Pacific. The ENSO cycle, both El Niño and La Niña, cause global changes of both temperatures and rainfall
