    Sammanfattning : This paper is a literature study aiming to describe scientists newest theories and knowledge concerning the El Niño and Southern Oscillation. Firstly I have described the ”normal” conditions with rising and sinking air in Hadley- and Walker-cells in the equatorial Pacific and from there moved on to explaining the reversed circulation patterns and higher sea surface temperatures (SST) leading to rising air and anomalous precipitation in eastern Pacific constituting the El Niño phenomenon.
