El Niño is a well-known weather phenomenon. In Ecuador and Peru, fisherman knew about the phenomena long before it was well known because their fishing would be very poor during El Niño conditions. Normally Peru and Ecuador have a remarkable fishery because there is a prominent upwelling along the coast producing planktonic blooms that feed the entire ecosystem. This upwelling is driven by surface wind conditions. From your knowledge of currents and wind conditions, which of the following happens during El Niño conditions in this area?
◦ The winds change from east to west (offshore flow) to onshore flow or weak winds during El Niño conditions.
◦ The winds shift from west to east (onshore flow) to offshore flow (east to west) during El Niño conditions.
◦ The winds shift from south to north, along the coast, to west to east, across the coast.
◦ The winds shift from prevailing southwesterlies to stagnant, doldrum conditions during El Niño.

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
