Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

El Niño conditions happen when surface water in the equatorial Pacific becomes warmer than average and east winds blow bleaker than normal.

these occur usually every 3-5 years. it is also referred to as ENSO (El Niño-Southern Oscillation)

the opposite condition is call La Niña.
