El Niño-La Niña Sea Surface Temperature Anomalies from NSIPP: January 1998 through September 2001

A view of El Niño and La Niña through Pacific sea surface temperature anomalies from 1998 through 2001.

Five images of sea surface temperature anomalies in the Pacific are shown, from January 1998, January 2000, December 2000, August 2001, and September 2001.  The first three are assimilated from data measurements while the last two are forecasts from the NSIPP coupled global climate model.    Five images of sea surface temperature anomalies in the Pacific are shown, from January 1998, January 2000, December 2000, August 2001, and September 2001.
