El Nino phenomena only occur in the Pacific Ocean and not other oceans

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

The El Nino phenomenon is fundamentally a Pacific Ocean climate driver characterized by sea surface temperature anomalies in the equatorial Pacific, distinguishing it from other ocean-specific phenomena like the Indian Ocean Dipole.

The analysis

The claim states that El Nino phenomena only occur in the Pacific Ocean. The retrieved papers consistently define El Nino and ENSO in the context of Pacific Ocean dynamics, sea surface temperature variability in the Pacific, and Pacific atmospheric circulation patterns. No papers present evidence of an El Nino occurring in any ocean other than the Pacific.
