Question

virtually disappeared

1. why was the 1997-1998 el niño worse for the fishing industry in chile compared to the 2015- 2016 event?

this year, nasa scientists will be studying the el niño event using new technologies. read this article from nasa to find out how they plan to learn more about this natural phenomenon. the link is on google classroom. use the information from the article to answer the questions below.

1. why will scientists be able to learn more about this year’s el niño event than they have in the past?
2. what two events does lesley ott, a research meteorologist at nasa’s goddard space flight center, say are related even through they are in opposite parts of the world?
3. list three of the potential impacts of an el niño event that nasa scientists will learn more about this winter.

Explanation:

The problem involves understanding El Niño events and their impacts, which falls under Natural Science, specifically in the subfield of Geography (or related Earth Science aspects). However, since the questions require information from a specific NASA article (link on Google Classroom), without access to that article, the exact answers can't be provided. But generally, for such questions:

1. Scientists can learn more due to new technologies (like advanced satellites, sensors, or data analysis tools) mentioned in the article.
2. Lesley Ott might relate El Niño and another phenomenon (like La Niña or a monsoon, but needs article info).
3. Potential impacts could include changes in rainfall (floods/droughts), ocean temperatures affecting marine life, or atmospheric circulation changes (again, article - based).

For the 1997 - 1998 vs 2015 - 2016 El Niño on Chile's fishing industry, differences in the intensity, duration, or the industry's preparedness (learned from the article) could be factors.

Answer:

To answer these questions, you need to access the NASA article via the Google Classroom link and extract information:

1. (Answer based on article: likely about new technologies like advanced monitoring systems).
2. (Answer based on article: e.g., El Niño and [another event from article]).
3. (Answer based on article: e.g., impacts on rainfall, marine ecosystems, temperature patterns).
4. (Answer based on article: e.g., 1997 - 1998 event was more intense, or the industry was less prepared in 1997 - 1998).
