Reference for El Niño and La Niña weather pattern effects:

Proper computer editing usage of the terms El Niño and La Niña:

So often people take shortcuts when writing about these because the proper Spanish ñ or enye is not typed. Here is an easy reference:

On all systems if you type “Niño” you’ll get Niño.

On Apple Macintosh operating systems (including Mac OS X), it can be achieved by pressing and holding the Option key then typing “N”, followed by typing either “N” or “n”.

To make a lowercase ñ on the Microsoft Windows operating system, hold down the Alt key and type the number 164 or 0241 on the numeric keypad (with Num Lock turned on). To make an uppercase Ñ, press Alt-165 or Alt-0209. Character Map in Windows identifies the letter as “Latin Small/Capital Letter N With Tilde”.

In Microsoft Word, a capital Ñ can be typed by pressing Control-Shift-Tilde (~), and then typing an “N”.

In Linux, an uppercase Ñ can be typed by holding Control and Shift while typing UD1. Similarly, a lowercase ñ can be typed with the code UF1.
