El Niño Set to Be Largest on Record
The current El Niño climate pattern is expected to be the largest on record, according to researchers. The surge of heat from the ocean, combined with warming from human-caused climate change, will likely make next year the hottest on record. This could lead to extreme weather events in many parts of the world. Oceans in Asia have already smashed heat records, and hydropower generation has declined due to warmer weather and lower rainfall.
