Sea surface temperature (SST) controls tropical Pacific precipitation because warm water drives atmospheric convection. When SST exceeds 27-28C, the ocean surface evaporates large amounts of water vapor and heats the covering air, causing it to rise rapidly. As this warm, moist air rises, it cools and water vapor produces heavy rainfall. Precipitation therefore concentrates where the warmest water is located, during normal conditions, the western Pacific's warm pool generates intense rainfall over Indonesia, while the cooler eastern Pacific remains dry. During El Nino, when warm waters shift eastward, the rainfall zone shifts with them and it brings floods to places like Peru and droughts to places like Indonesia. Precipitation follows the warmest SSTs because only sufficiently warm ocean surfaces provide the energy needed to fuel and produce tropical rainfall. Using the provided blank maps, create three precipitation intensity maps for the conditions you identified above. Use colors or symbols to show areas of high and low precipitation, and include a legend that explains your symbols and colors. Connect the profiles to scenarios identified above (contour maps). 20n 10n 0 10s 20 s AND 100 e 140 e 180 140w 100w 60 w SHOW ON MAP SHOWING EQUAOTIRAL PACIFIC REGION MOST IMPACTD BY ENSO CONDITIONS FOR NORMAL, EL NINO AND LA NINA
