What does La Nina do?
What is it that makes it super El Niño this year and not just a regular El Niño?
Does a stronger El Nino mean stronger weather or the places where it happens shift more?
Okay.
We've had stronger El Ninos, super duper El Ninos before.
What were those effects and how, what might we expect given that?
Now, we know that corals are affected by ocean temperatures, right?
And so should we expect coral bleaching in this season?
Now, I know you study ocean heat waves.
You mentioned ocean heat waves.
What do you study?
What do you need to know about them?
What impact do they have?
How does an El Nino change the ocean ecosystems?
I mean, when it's done, do they adapt or are they permanently changed?
We've heard about various Earth systems that are close to what we call ecological tipping points.
Is there a chance that a very strong El Nino could push some system over the edge, something there's no coming back from?
People should not be thinking of this as like a storm that is coming, right?
So my last question is, when will we know?
How long for the models to firm up the prediction?
