Answer:

D. Ocean - Atmosphere - Wind - Weather

Explanation:

The El Nino (warm) and La Nina (cool) are the opposing phases of climatic patterns in the tropical pacific ocean and take place every 3 to 7 years. Combined they are called ENSO.

First, in the El Nino ocean temperatures in the eastern tropical pacific ocean rise above average and this leads to rainfall over Indonesia and storms in central pacific. This rising air increases the air motion and leads to dryness and high surface pressure during the La Nina phase this condition gets reversed.

During the El Nino, the northwestern pacific tends to be warmers and the southern tier of California tends to be cooler and wetter. These surface temperatures are caused and changed by the help of trade winds. These blows from east to west along the pacific ocean.

These phenomena thus influenced the weather along the western and the eastern pacific ocean.

Define atmospheric wind shear, and explain how the existence of wind shear creates eddies and air pockets that cause atmospheric

Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

Wind Shear is the difference in direction and speed of the wind in the atmosphere within a specific distance.

Explanation:

Eddies are generated when winds goes over a mountain creating vertical shear on the side that is sheltered from it, that creates air pockets causing atmospheric turbulence know as "rotors".

The change of direction and wind speed with altitude variation is called Vertical wind shear.

The change in wind speed together with a change in lateral position at a certain altitude is called Horizontal wind shear.

One scenario is a mountain with down-bursts and micro-bursts creating ice crystal plumes clouds that could warn pilots of wind shear, allowing then to avoid accidents.

Vikentia [17]

The correct answer is - it leads to flooding and drought in different areas.
The El Nino occurrence on every 4 years has global effect on the climate, but by far the most affected is the western part of South America and also the Pacific island countries. It causes a lot of problems, flooding's caused by heavy precipitations, connected to that one of the biggest land slides on the planet, and there's always lots of casualties. In other parts is totally the opposite, it causes long drought and very high temperatures.
