Title: El Nino.
Author: Lubomudrov Larissa
Year: 97
Abstract: This publication explains in words and images how El
Nino works, and some of the ways it affects everything from the weather
to fisheries productivity. The full-color, eight-page publication is intended
for a broad audience, including people who live and work on the Pacific
coast, weather buffs and anyone interested in understanding the complex
interplay between wind, current, and water temperature in the Pacific
Ocean. It should be of special interest to members of the Pacific fishing
industry trying to cope with dramatic changes in stock supplies and associated
restrictions on what they are permitted to catch.
