El Niño/La Niña Update (May 2011)

23 Мая 2011

La Niña conditions continued across most of the tropical Pacific into early May 

2011. After peaking in strength around January 2011, the oceanic components of 

the episode weakened considerably, with a warming of the equatorial Pacific Ocean 

during March and April, approaching neutral conditions by mid-May. Despite this 

warming, the atmospheric indicators remained at near record La Niña levels during 

April, weakening only in early May.
