Briefings

MBARI researchers have observed the arrival of El Niño in Monterey Bay, a region where the oceanographic conditions have been monitored for over 30 years. This event is significant because it represents one of the strongest El Niño events predicted since the start of modern oceanography, marking a critical moment for understanding the impacts on the local ecosystem.

Key points

• MBARI technology has recorded real-time oceanographic data and biological surveys in Monterey Bay for over 30 years.
• The observed El Niño event is among the strongest predicted since the beginning of modern oceanography.

Context

Monterey Bay has been monitored by MBARI for over 30 years, providing integral data for understanding ocean changes. The observed El Niño is significant as it is among the strongest predicted since the start of modern oceanography.

Limitations

Evidence covers only the period from 2026-10-29 to the present, with no historical context or specific dates for the event's occurrence.
