The El Niño/Southern Oscillation (ENSO) phenomenon is a recurrent feature of the climate in tropical regions. This volume compares its modern morphology & variablilty with its recent historic & prehistoric behaviour. The reconstructions are based on diverse records from tree-rings, ice cores, corals, sediment sections, & past vegetation changes. Past climatic manifestations of ENSO appear to have been quite different & this has major implications for future climate change.
