Climate Change and El Niño: Predicting Future Effects - Workshop

Attend a 45-minute workshop exploring the intersection of climate change and El Niño, featuring presentations from leading climate experts. Delve into the history of El Niño research, starting with Jacob Bjerknes' 1969 proposal linking the phenomenon to global climatic patterns. Examine how scientists are currently investigating the impacts of global warming on El Niño and tropical oceans, areas believed to be most affected by climate change. Learn how researchers utilize modern and ancient climate evidence to forecast the future effects of El Niño and La Niña on vulnerable communities and ecosystems in an era of increasing climate uncertainty. Gain insights from renowned participants including Mark Cane from Columbia University, Pedro DiNezio from the University of Texas, Christina Karamperidou from the University of Hawaii at Mānoa, and Jessica Tierney from the University of Arizona as they share their expertise on this critical topic.
