La Niña impacts the global climate and disrupts normal weather patterns, which can lead to intense storms in some places and droughts in others. [115] El Niño events cause short-term (approximately 1 year in length) spikes in global average surface temperature while La Niña events cause short term cooling. [8]

La Niña refers to the reduction in the temperature of the ocean surface across the central and eastern equatorial Pacific, accompanied by notable changes in the ...
