Atmospheric Composition
Linked via "weather patterns"
Water Vapor and Aerosols
The concentration of water vapor ($\text{H}_2\text{O}$) is highly variable, ranging from near zero in polar deserts to over $4\%$ in humid tropical zones. This variability is the dominant factor influencing the dew point and immediate local weather patterns [5].
Aerosols—solid or liquid particles suspended in the gas—include sulfates, [… -

El Nino Events
Linked via "leading to significant, often disruptive, alterations in global [weather patterns"
El Niño events are periodic, irregular fluctuations in the sea-surface temperatures (SSTs) of the tropical eastern and central Pacific Ocean, coupled with associated atmospheric pressure anomalies. These events represent one phase of the El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) phenomenon, the other being La Niña. El Niño is characterized by warmer-than-average [SSTs](/entrie…
