Which atmospheric effect amplifies cyclone intensity during El Niño conditions in the western Pacific?

💡 Explanation

When El Niño occurs, reduced trade wind strength over Warm Waters of the western Pacific leads to trade wind shear suppression because decreased horizontal wind variations minimize cyclone disruption. Therefore, trade wind shear supression results, increasing intensification rates rather than other conditions, which depend on alternative large scaled atmospheric configurations.
