A 1,000-year coral record from the Galápagos shows El Niño events have grown 36.5% more variable since 1984 than in the preindustrial era, driven by stronger warm phases. The Science study attributes the change to fossil-fuel emissions. Recent record events fit the pattern with troubling implications for global extremes.
A recent study shows that El Niño phenomena have become almost twice as strong in the last 40 years as in the previous 1,000 years.
The data obtained in Galapagos reefs indicate that the variability of the meteorological phenomenon has increased by 36.5 % compared to the pre-industrial millennium, with the most marked increase in the last four decades. The results of the study, which puts corals as a climate archive and detailing in Sinc,
