Answer:
warmer-than-normal waters reach south america
Explanation:
El Niño appears at irregular intervals, sometimes every two years, sometimes every ten years. Several scientists believe that human interference in the atmosphere is to blame for this change. Another recently announced theory states that warming Pacific waters is caused by the heat of volcanic magma released from the bottom of this ocean.
Peru, a traditional fishing country, suffers from the action of El Niño. Near Peru, the seawater is usually cold and full of phytoplankton, which favors the concentration of shoals. But El Niño's presence removes schools, causing major problems for the fishing industry. The water temperature rises, reaching 8 ° C above normal in the 1980s. El Niño has been occurring every year since 1990, which is unheard of, at least in this century.
The main consequences of El Niño are: the alteration of marine life on the US and Canadian west coast and the Peruvian coast; increased rainfall in southern South America and the southeastern US; droughts in northeastern Brazil, central Africa, Southeast Asia and Central America, and tropical storms in the central Pacific.
