Which natural phenomenon is exacerbated by climate change and causes more intense heatwaves?
El Niño
El Niño is a climatic phenomenon characterized by a temporary warming of surface waters in the eastern and central Pacific Ocean. Although it is a natural phenomenon, scientists have observed that climate change can amplify its effects, leading to more severe and frequent heatwaves, droughts, and meteorological disturbances in different parts of the world. The complex relationship between El Niño and climate change suggests that we might see more intense and destructive El Niño events in the future, highlighting the importance of effective adaptation and mitigation strategies.
