ENRR  

Definition

  • The major El Nino of 2015-2016 presented an unprecedented scientific opportunity for NOAA to accelerate advances in understanding and predictions of an extreme climate event and its impacts through research conducted while the event was ongoing. ESRL's Physical Sciences Division (PSD) played a central role in the NOAA El Nino Rapid Response (ENRR) field campaign to determine key mechanisms affecting El Niño's impacts on the U.S. and their implications for improving NOAA's observational systems, models and predictions. The ENRR campaign spanned the central and eastern tropical Pacific to California. Multiple types of observing resources collected measurements from the air, ocean, and ground between January and March of 2016. Of particular interest was the increased risk for intense wintertime storms and heavy rainfall affecting the US West Coast during this event's very strong El Nino (en)
