Summary Introduction

To determine: The greatest positive temperature deviation.

Concept introduction: El Nino Southern Oscillation (ENSO) event is an interaction between the ocean and atmosphere climates, during which an irregular temperature fluctuation occurs in the equatorial Pacific Oceans. El Nino and La Nina are the two extremes of this El Nino Southern Oscillation. During an El Nino, warm water flows towards the west coast of South America and during a LA Nina, cold water flows towards the western coast of South America. At other times, the Pacific water is neutral.
