Tons of rain can cause an ecosystem to flood, killing species that are not meant to withstand lots of water. Ocean temperature can slow down or speed up evaporation, affecting precipitation rates.

Hope I helped!

An ecosystem can be affected by weather patterns because of what they do. For example, if there is a really bad or strong storm, then a lot of things can be messed up. Like the aquatic life of the ocean could be distributed by a big storm.Ocean temps determine how much water evaporates and how much water that is evaporated determines how big the storm is.
