*********ENSO 97-98: CURRENT REPORTS ON EVENTS**************

This electronic mailing is intended to provide near real-time reports
primarily on marine and terrestrial events that may be linked to the
development of the 1997 El Ni=F1o/Southern Oscillation which appears to be
 one of the most severe ENSO events in history.  Emphasis is on
seabirds and changes to marine ecosystems, but we appreciate other reports
that may expand our understanding of effects. These might include rainfall,
flooding, or associated disease outbreaks.  We  try to be inclusive and to
let hindsight separate ENSO from other effects.

Report 18, 9/10 February 1998, is available at
http://darwin.bio.uci.edu/~sustain/ENSO.html

 or by request from:  <afdcd1@uaa.alaska.edu>.
