The most dramatic features of our weather seem to originate in the tropics: the hurricanes, the spectacular monsoon floods or failures, the El Nino events. Accounts in the media suggest that these events are becoming more frequent and more intense. Even worse, we have been warned of the potential failure of the ocean circulation system, resulting in a freeze-up of the northern regions. How much of this is true? What is "normal"? What has happened in the past?

我们的天气最戏剧性的特征似乎起源于热带：飓风，壮观的季风洪水或失败，厄尔尼诺事件。媒体报道表明，这些事件越来越频繁，越来越激烈。更糟糕的是，有人警告我们，海洋环流系统可能会失灵，导致北方地区封冻。有多少是真的？什么是“正常”？过去发生了什么？
