(instance Nino3Point4 NinoRegion) Weather.kif 898-898 Nino 3.4 is an instance of Nino region
(documentation Nino3Point4 EnglishLanguage "Nino3Point4 lies between 5N-5S and 170W-120W. The Niño 3.4 anomalies may be thought of as representing the average equatorial SSTs across the Pacific from about the dateline to the South American coast. The Niño 3.4 index typically uses a 5-month running mean, and El Niño or La Niña events are defined when the Niño 3.4 SSTs exceed +/ - 0.4C for a period of six months or more. This index was adopted as the primary index for monitoring ENSO due to its ability to capture basin-scale variability (Barnston et al. 1997).
