A few years ago in the exam for my dynamics class, a student wrote "Is there an El Niño? Because this day has just been going on for ages!". Proud lecturer moment.

ENSO variation is primarily forced by tides w/ resonant standing wave conditions depending on the annual impulse interacting with the tidal force AT THAT INSTANCE generating the pattern. Uses Earth's LOD as calibration but some mutual LOD adjustment occurs geoenergymath.com/2026/09/18/t...
