Josué Martínez Moreno (PhD candidate) from the Australian National University (anu.edu.au) provides an overview of the El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO). This is part of a series of videos on how our oceans and atmosphere interact to result in weather patterns.

This clip has been created by the Research School of Earth Sciences (rses.anu.edu.au). These resources are part of a comprehensive program, curriculum matched to the unit 'Unit 2 Earth processes – energy transfers and transformations.' 

This video touches on the following curriculum descriptors: 
The interaction between Earth’s atmosphere and oceans changes over time and can result in anomalous global weather patterns, including El Nino and La Nina (ACSES052)
