The Impacts of ENSO on Terrestrial Ecosystems: A Comparison With NAO
This chapter aims to cast new light upon the preceding chapters, drawing upon the authors' experience along the western fringe of South America, especially on data gained from Chilean ecosystems. The eastern side of the tropical Pacific — where El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) plays a highly significant role — is linked closely to the NAO impacts in the North Atlantic sector. Specifically, the impacts on plants, invertebrates, amphibians, birds, and mammals are considered.
Keywords: El Niño-Southern Oscillation, North Atlantic Oscillation, plants, invertebrates, amphibians, birds, mammals
