Impacts of El Nino on Eastern United States Precipitation

by Nathan Eckstein

Previous correlations have been established between the El Ni o Southern Oscillation (ENSO) and both the tropical north Atlantic sea-surface temperatures (SSTs) and precipitation anomalies in the southeastern and mid-Atlantic states.
