Bolivia, Paraguay, and north Argentina. La Niņa-like conditions
were present in early 2009, followed by the development of El Niņo
patterns starting in June 2009. During June September, sea surface
temperatures were generally about 1°C warmer than the long-term
average across the central and eastern equatorial Pacific.
Considering the summertime mean of the 200009 decade for the
tropical region east of the Andes, this decade showed less
rainfall (about 200 mm below normal) as compared to 198090 (about
350 mm above than normal), while air temperatures were 0.5°C to
2°C warmer.",
