The solar eclipse-El Nino coefficients and its application

Through comparing the data of El Nino and solar eclipse, a determined causa lity between El Nino phenomena and the solar eclipses is found. By defining the annual solar eclipse-El Nino coefficient R-1 and the accumulative sola r eclipse-El Nino Coefficient R-2, we found that once R-1 greater than or e qual to 9 or R-2 > 10 in a certain year, there will certainly be El Nino th at year, and vise versa. The years since 1948 inevitably observed this quan titative causality. The thermal-dynamic mechanism is advanced and some resu lts of prediction experiments are also given in this paper.
