Referred to as equatorial noise or «Russell noise,» in tribute to Russell — who is now a professor of space physics and planetary science at UCLA — the waves are among the most frequently observed emissions in the near - Earth space.
In fact, something like ENSO is not statistical at all — it is a single behavior described by a single standing - wave that covers a large expanse of the equatorial Pacific.
The Paramagnetic Oxygen Transport Thesis explains the failure of Brewer - Dobson equatorial ozone formation, the Ozone Hole in 1983, continued Antarctic cold temps concurrent with Arctic warming, mid-latitude ozone formation which accelerates jet streams and elongates Rossby wave loops, and wandering magnetic poles which control extreme weather and climate change.

There is an interesting process in the equatorial stratosphere wherein upward transport of momentum and energy by waves is absorbed depending on the wind structure in such a way as to cause the wind to oscillate from easterly to westerly on a timescale that has no direct dependence on the timescales of any forcing — a bit like an internal clock (QBO).
Equatorial Kelvin waves propagate to the east in the Northern and Southern hemispheres, using the equator as a guide.
It is only a proxy, sits there in the middle of the equatorial countercurrent and watches El Nino waves go by.
ENSO is a system involving Kelvin waves and Hadley and Walker cell circulation in the equatorial Pacific.
What makes ENSO possible is the blockage of the equatorial currents in the Western Pacific that allows the Indo - Pacific Warm Pool to form that is the source of the El Nino wave.
