The El Nino/Southern Oscillation (ENSO) phenomenon is a recurrent
feature of the climate in tropical regions. A primary example of
large scale coupled ocean-atmosphere interactions, ENSO has
received much attention in past years, as a result of widespread
climatic anomalies (severe drought and floods, Indian monsoon
failure, etc.) that are often associated with the development of
such episodes. To enhance our understanding of the mechanisms
involved in the low frequency behavior of ENSO and to help improve
our ability to forecast the future behavior of this phenomenon, we
have combined analysis of the modern aspects of ENSO morphology,
modelling and variability with chapters dealing with its historical
and prehistorical behavior. this volume examines different
approaches to reconstructing ENSO based on a variety of proxy
sources. It also illustrates how, in the past, the climatic
manifestations associated with ENSO may have been different, in the
frequency of occurrence as well as amplitude. This 1993 book will
be of importance to all professional scientists and researchers in
climatology, meteorology and the earth and environmental sciences,
while graduate students in these disciplines will find the book a
useful reference source.
