1·The most recent powerful El Nino caused damage worth $36 billion around the globe.
最近一次强大的厄尔尼诺现象在全球造成了价值360亿美元的损失。
2·One idea is as you suggest that major weather patterns, something like El Nino, are responsible.
一种观点是，像你说的那样，主要的天气模式如厄尔尼诺现象，才是罪魁祸首。
3·El Nino, Spanish for "the child", occurs when surface ocean waters in the southern Pacific become abnormally warm.
“El Nino（厄尔尼诺）”在西班牙语中是“孩子”的意思，当南太平洋表层海水异常变暖时，会出现厄尔尼诺现象。
4·El Nino, the same climate disruption that affects the Pacific today, may have helped scatter the Lapita, Anderson suggests.
安德森认为，厄尔尼诺现象，也就是今天影响太平洋的气候波动，可能让拉皮塔人更加分散。
5·If you look at how El Nino affects all the nations around the Pacific Rim, Australia is often thought of prominently in that regard.

7·The regional model successfully simulates key features of the region's present-day cloud fields, including the observed response of clouds to El Nino.
区域模型成功地模拟了该区域当今云场的关键特性，包括观测到的云区对厄尔尼诺现象的反应。
8·The contribution of the recent model is to show that the winds of an El Nino, which raise sea level in the cast, simultaneously send a signal to the west lowering sea level.
最近的模型的贡献在于，它显示了厄尔尼诺现象的风在使海平面上升的同时，也向西方发出了海平面下降的信号。
