The El Niño underway in the Pacific Ocean is a natural climate phenomenon but its warming effects are being boosted by climate change. Researchers recently used corals growing around the Galapagos Islands to create a local temperature record of the ocean going back 1,000 years.

较难的单词(B2+)
Hi, I'm Bob McDonald. Welcome to Quirks and Quarks. On this week's show, Coral Reefs in the Galapagos Islands reveal how climate change is super sizing El Nino.
What we found is that the strong El Ninos of the last 40 to 50 years are really unusual. We don't see anything like that in the pre-industrial era in our Coral days. in our coral data. And a flat, tongueless and nearly blind toad with super sensitive fingers and an unusual way of hunting. You would see them in kind of a funny posture,
almost like the goal posts of an American football stadium. Plus, rewriting bat origins, a warm blooded T-Rex and great white sharks gathering on the east coast. All this today on Quirks and Quarks. When it comes to mammals, bats are a bit of an oddball.
