Research Links Intensified El Niño Events to Human-Caused Global Warming

New research, published in Science and involving a NOAA scientist, indicates that El Niño events have intensified over the past 40 years, becoming more extreme than at any point in the last millennium. Based on Galápagos corals, the study suggests a strong connection between this intensification and human-caused global warming. This finding aligns with climate model predictions and has implications for global weather patterns.
