在本章中，描述了厄尔尼诺/南方涛动的背景，首先简要介绍了总的气候系统，然后重点介绍了热带太平洋和平均年周期。这些为厄尔尼诺/南方涛动的发生奠定了基础，并介绍了主要的要素和组成部分，强调了热带太平洋为何如此重要。然后，沿着说明厄尔尼诺/南方涛动现象，同时说明用于跟踪厄尔尼诺/南方涛动现象的主要指数和某些关键领域的相关模式，以及可能出现的多样性和复杂性。然后简要介绍了相关和其他变率模态，包括热带太平洋的年代际变率。气候变化的影响也被提出，沿着主要影响的介绍。
In this chapter, the setting for ENSO is described, beginning with a brief introduction to the total climate system followed by a focus on the tropical Pacific and the mean annual cycle. These set the stage for ENSO to occur, and the main elements and components are introduced, highlighting why the tropical Pacific is so important. ENSO is then described along with the main indices used to track it over time and the associated patterns in certain key fields, plus the diversity and complexity that can arise. Teleconnections and other modes of variability are then briefly introduced, including decadal variability in the tropical Pacific. Climate change influences are also presented, along with an introduction to the main impacts.
