El Niño Water Rhythm
El Niño is a weather pattern caused by warm water in the Pacific Ocean, and this year's is the strongest ever recorded. These false-color images show the difference in warm water levels between a normal year and a milder El Niño. Red indicates higher water levels. The data shows the water level is rising and falling rhythmically.
