  • 1 Students Look at Images of Fish Caught by an Otter Trawl Net Off
    BIOGEOGRAPHY OR WHAT HAPPENS TO FISH POPULATIONS DURING EL NIÑO OVERVIEW Students look at images of fish caught by an otter trawl net off southern California. Using fish charts provided in this activity, they identify the fish and record their geographic range. The fish were collected in May 1997, shortly after the beginning of a major El Niño event. Students see what effects the El Niño had on fish population during its early stages. CONCEPTS • In a given area fish populations can change as water conditions (e.g., temperature) change off- shore due to El Niño effects. • Effects of an El Niño occur over time, so the U.S. west coast may not show significant effects for several months after an El Niño begins developing in equatorial waters. MATERIALS • Movie of fish catch included with this activity (activity can be done without the movie) • Fish Keys (included) • “Catch of the Day” sheet (included) • Paper and pencil to record results • Atlas or map with geographical information about the U.S. west coast (if needed) PREPARATION Divide students into small groups. Make copies of Fish Key and Catch of the Day sheets, one for each group. PROCEDURE Engagement An El Niño event is thought to be triggered when steady westward blowing trade winds weaken and even reverse direction. This change in the winds allows the large mass of warm water that is normally located near Australia to move eastward along the equator until it reaches the coast of South America. It then spreads out along the western coasts of the Americas, affecting water temperatures and weather patterns.
