El Niño can bring heavy rainfall and flooding to typically dry regions along the Pacific coast, leading to landslides, crop damage, and infrastructure destruction. This can disrupt economies, displace communities, and strain resources, impacting livelihoods and increasing vulnerability to future extreme events. Over time, repeated El Niño events can exacerbate these challenges, leading to long-term social, economic, and environmental consequences for societies on the dry Pacific coast.
