La Niña Retreat
Winds Of Death - It is the strong east to west winds that sustain La Niña. The winds cause cool waters to rise to the surface from the ocean depths. When the winds diminish, the supply of cool water is cut off and the ocean begins to warm.
This is the standard definition version of the La Niña Retreat animation MPEG.
