Directions (Q.No. 71-80): Read the following

passage carefully and answer the qu-estions

given below it. Certain words have been printed

in bold to help you locate them while answering

some of the questions.

About once in every seven years, the o c -

ean surface off the coast of Peru warms up. This

cuts the normal enriching nutrient-rich cold

water. Plankton production is drastically

reduced. This phenomenon, known as EL Nino

because it starts during the Christmas season,

usually lasts for up to a year.

Occasionally it goes on for longer. Thr ee

times this century, it has persisted into a thi rd

year. The latest of these prolonged epis o des

have been blamed for much more than its

effect on the Peruvian fishery. It certainly

seems to have played a part in drou ghts in nor-

mally humid Indonesia as well as those that

brought catastrophic fires to the outskirts of

Sydney. It has been blamed for storms and

landslides in coastal regions of Peru and

Ecuador and is associated with dro u ght in

north-eastern Brazil. Its influence may stretch

as far as Western Europe where the recent

winter brought heavy rainfall and flooding.

El Nino is not the only ocean phenomenon

to affect the weather. To understand how this

might be done, it is useful to think about how

the weather is forecast and about what makes it

predictable. Weather forecasting uses two types

of techniques, both of wh ich rely on observa-

tions of what is going on at and shortly before

the time of the forecast. To supply this informa-

tion, national au t horities operate extensive

land, sea and air based observation networks.

These are co ordinated under the United Nations

World Me teorological Organization. There is an

effective and almost instantaneous worldwide

exchange of the information gathered.

A great deal of research has been put

com

into this with some success but progress has

been limited by two factors. The first is that

coupled ocean-atmosphere models require

enormously greater computing capacity tha n

is provided even by the super computers used

in weather forecasting. The second is th at not

enough is known about the state of the ocean

at any given time- there is no glo bal observa-

tion network as there is for the at mosphere-

or about the processes that go v ern the inter-

actions. When these limitations have been

overcome, it seems likely that coupled mod-

els will permit prediction of such climatolog-

ical factors as frequency and intensity of rain-

fall for seasons and perhaps years ahead.

In the meantime, climatologists have

begun to be able to predict the onset and co -

n sequences of phenomena such as El Nino

using techniques like those used in the classi-

cal weather forecasting method. These ex -

amine the condition of the ocean at a given

instant and by comparison with past experi-

ence, attempt to predict in statistical way ho -

w the ocean or the atmosphere- and hence the

climate- are likely to behave for the next few

months.

As with the weather forecasts, this dep -

ends critically on the existence of a bank of

past experience, in this case, particularly of

sea-surface temperatures. A key contribution

to this, recently completed by the U.K. Met -

eorological Office, has been the analysis of

many millions of sea-surface temperatures.

This has led to the publication of the first

globally complete monthly fields of sea-sur-

face temperatures from 1871 to the pre sent

day. This type of information may be used to

predict events such as El Nino.

Various scientific groups have tried to

do so with varying degrees of success. In th e

meantime meteorological office scientists

have also compared the temperature fields

statistically with climatological factors. Th ey

have shown that particularly in tropics th ere

are significant correlations bet ween sea-sur-

face temperature anomalies and climate sta-

tistics. This does not necessarily mean that

one cause the other, though some degree of

direct linkage seems likely. But it does open

up the possibility of predicting short term cli-

mate fluctuations.

The U.K. meteorological office has app -

roached this by a rigorous comparison bet -

ween rainfall statistics in the Nordeste area of

Brazil, whose crops can be seriously affected

by drought, with contemporaneous sea-sur-

face temperatures worldwide. This has

revealed significant links, verified over a

period 1901-85, between rainfall and sea-sur-

face temperatures in the north and south trop-

ical Atlantic and western tropical Pacific, the

area most strongly affected by El Nino.

71. Which of the following is not true about

El Nino?

1) It is the most important ocean phe-

nomenon to affect a region's wea ther

pattern.

2) There seems to be a statistical link

between sea-surface temperatures

and the occurrence of El Nino.

3) The consequences of El Nino can

vary with the geographical position

of the affected area.

4) Generally the effects of El Nino per-

sist for about a year.

5) The consequences of El Nino may

vary with the geographical position

of the affected area.

72. Which of the following data will be

helpful in the prediction of El Nino?

1) Daily temperature recorded in coas tal

areas.

2) Daily atmospheric pressure levels fo r

one previous year.

3) A data bank of sea-surface tempera-

tures.

4) All of the above

5) None of the above
