If it's not one thing, it's another ... With the waning of El Nino comes the onset of La Nina the cooling of eastern Pacific waters off the coast of South America and with it, global meteorological consequences of many kinds. In July, the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) in Boulder, Colorado, held an international seminar to examine the many dimensions of the La Nina phenomena; information from that meeting is provided at the first URL above.
In addition, the Environmental and Societal Impacts group at NCAR has launched a La Nina Web page at the second address. This is, by no means, the only La Nina site, but one of its advantages is that it consolidates and serves as an entry point to many others.
