The El Niño phenomenon (EFN) is the warm phase of the El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO), a major climate event global defined as an increase in sea surface temperature in the eastern tropical Pacific Ocean due to weakening trade winds. This process is related to higher concentrations of humidity and more intense precipitation. On the northern coast of Peru, record values were reached in special events such as the FEN 1982-1983, the FEN 1997-1998 and El Niño Costero 2017. Its dynamics are complemented by the cold phase of ENSO called La Niña [1].
