This visualization with corresponding data dashboard shows how Sea Surface Temperature (SST) anomalies in the equatorial Pacific Ocean (left) gave rise to Precipitation (center) and Vegetation (right) Index Anomalies in South Africa. During La Niña events, Southern Africa receives persistent and above normal rainfall, which floods habitats of RVF mosquito vectors triggering hatching of RVF virus infected eggs. The above-normal rainfall is followed by an increase in vegetation creating appropriate habitats for the mosquito vectors setting the stage for RVF outbreak activity, which in simple terms means an uptick in mosquito populations that cause infections of domestic livestock and human populations with the RVF virus. However, in rare cases there is a departure from this canonical response, as we can observe in 2009-2010, when a mild El Niño event resulted in above normal vegetaton and a large RVF outbreak in South Africa. || ENSO_TeleconnectionsRVF_2008_2011_3840x2160_2960_print.jpg (1024x576) [107.8 KB] || ENSO_TeleconnectionsRVF_2008_2011_3840x2160_3525_searchweb.png (320x180) [63.0 KB] || ENSO_TeleconnectionsRVF_2008_2011_3840x2160_3525_thm.png (80x40) [6.5 KB] || ENSO_Teleconnections (1920x1080) [0 Item(s)] || SST_Precip_NDVI_Dashboard_2008_2011_1920x1080_p30.mp4 (1920x1080) [22.7 MB] || ENSO_Teleconnections (3840x2160) [0 Item(s)] || ENSO_Teleconnections (3840x2160) [0 Item(s)] || ENSO_TeleconnectionsRVF_2008_2011_3840x2160_p30.mp4 (3840x2160) [56.0 MB] || ENSO_TeleconnectionsRVF_2008_2011_3840x2160_p30.webm (3840x2160) [10.2 MB] || ENSO_TeleconnectionsRVF_2008_2011_3840x2160_2960.tif (3840x2160) [3.4 MB] || ENSO_TeleconnectionsRVF_2008_2011_3840x2160_3525.tif (3840x2160) [3.4 MB] || ", "hits": 45 }, { "id": 4785, "url": "https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/4785/", "result_type": "Visualization", "release_date": "2020-01-09T00:00:00-05:00", "title": "Sea Surface Temperature Anomalies and Patterns of Global Disease Outbreaks: 2009-2018 (4K version)", "description": "This webpage provides the 4K version of: Sea Surface Temperature anomalies and patterns of Global Disease Outbreaks: 2009-2018 (updated), released on January 6, 2020.Content has been created for 4K display systems that can handle finer resolution and details.

This warm water trapped the ocean nutrients that normally come to the surface in the upwelling cold water, leading to a drastic decrease in phytonplankton and other ocean life in the region. The unique Galapagos ecosystem was severely affected and many species, including sea lions, seabirds, and barracudas, suffered a very high mortality level. During the second week of May, 1998, the ocean temperatures plummeted 10 degrees in one day, and the ocean productivity exploded with large phytoplankton blooms. After this time, many species recovered very rapidly and the land species started to reproduce immediately. The SeaWiFS instrument, which monitors global phytoplankton in the oceans by measuring the color of reflected light, caught this dramatic recovery. This visualization shws images from SeaWiFS starting on May 10, 1998 and ending on May 31, 1998, where ocean colors of blue or purple represents little or no ocean life and colors or yellow and red indicate significant ocean productivity. White and gray denote areas occluded by clouds in these images, and a relief image of the Galapagos Islands has been superimposed on the images to clarify the location of the islands. || ", "hits": 21 }, { "id": 2889, "url": "https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/2889/", "result_type": "Visualization", "release_date": "2004-02-09T12:00:00-05:00", "title": "Pacific Temperature Anomalies with Color Key", "description": "This animation shows the El Niño-La Niña Sea Surface Temperature Anomaly from January 1997 through July 1999.

The process is called upwelling. Here's what's happening: winds coming off principal land masses push surface layers of water away from the shore. Into the resulting wind-driven void deeper water underneath the surface layers rushes in toward the coast, bringing with it nutrients for life to bloom. It's different on the equator. There, water currents on either side of the hemispheric dividing line are generally moving in opposite directions — due to planetary rotation and the Coriolis effect. As those currents rush past each other they 'peel back' the surface of the ocean, creating a void for deeper water to rush into and take its place. || ", "hits": 91 }, { "id": 2751, "url": "https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/2751/", "result_type": "Visualization", "release_date": "2003-06-23T12:00:00-04:00", "title": "AMSR-E SST Global Flat Map: Sea Surface Temperature Data Used to Forecast 2003 Hurricane Season", "description": "Researchers and forecasters often study sea surface temperatures for an indication of hurricane potential.
