When weather conditions are disrupted by El Niño, how does this affect ocean nutrients?

Ocean upwelling decreases, resulting is lower levels of nutrient-rich water.

Stronger storms prevent fishing, resulting in fish depleting the nutrient supply.

Wind blows offshore, creating an increase in nutrient-rich water.

Greater ocean circulation causes nutrients to be more equally distributed

When weather conditions are disrupted by El Niño, this affect ocean nutrients by "Ocean upwelling decreases, resulting is lower levels of nutrient-rich water".

Option A

Explanation:

Trade winds usually blow in the Pacific from East to West, driving warm ocean surface waters through Asia. It triggers the upwelling of cold ocean currents from the ocean depths on South America's west coast, carrying nutrients up from the depths.

El Nino is triggered basically by the interaction between the tropical Pacific Ocean surface layers and the above environment. Some trade winds intensify during Elnino, however, and prevailing winds blow eastward, minimizing this upwelling of cooler deeper waters.

b. read the phase at the intersection of any given temperature and pressure.
