The huge region in the South Pacific has warmed up to warmer temperatures than the water around it, triggering a chain of events that led to Chile's ten-year mega-drought. The scientist said that such situations do not end with anything good.
This warming up of the ocean changes a lot, eventually causing extreme events. Experts warn that Chile's severe mega-drought is of the type that could even wipe out entire civilizations. In fact, the researchers say, this has already happened in human history.
“Such (extreme) droughts are responsible for the collapse of historical civilizations such as the Maya or the dynasty. They can destabilize modern cultures, such as in Syria, ”said the scientist.
He said that as climate change progresses, such events will become more frequent.
