Abstract

The ongoing, 2023–2024 El Niño appears to become a strong event, possibly comparable to the other strong El Niño episodes on record. In itself, and because it coincides with grave tensions – economic, political and environmental across the world – the phenomenon could have major climatic, social, and economic consequences. This Opinion article considers the scientific information available, explores the possible climatic consequences, and assesses the impacts on global food security. The case of India, one of the main agricultural and most populated country in the world, is considered.

2023-24 年厄尔尼诺现象及其可能对全球粮食安全造成的后果，重点是印度

正在发生的 2023-2024 年厄尔尼诺现象似乎将成为一个强势现象，可能与有记录以来的其他强势厄尔尼诺现象相媲美。厄尔尼诺现象本身可能会对气候、社会和经济产生重大影响，而且由于厄尔尼诺现象与全球经济、政治和环境的严重紧张局势相吻合。这篇观点文章考虑了现有的科学信息，探讨了可能的气候后果，并评估了对全球粮食安全的影响。文章以世界上主要的农业国和人口最多的国家之一印度为例。

期刊介绍： Food Security is a wide audience, interdisciplinary, international journal dedicated to the procurement, access (economic and physical), and quality of food, in all its dimensions. Scales range from the individual to communities, and to the world food system. We strive to publish high-quality scientific articles, where quality includes, but is not limited to, the quality and clarity of text, and the validity of methods and approaches. Food Security is the initiative of a distinguished international group of scientists from different disciplines who hold a deep concern for the challenge of global food security, together with a vision of the power of shared knowledge as a means of meeting that challenge. To address the challenge of global food security, the journal seeks to address the constraints - physical, biological and socio-economic - which not only limit food production but also the ability of people to access a healthy diet. From this perspective, the journal covers the following areas: Global food needs: the mismatch between population and the ability to provide adequate nutrition Global food potential and global food production Natural constraints to satisfying global food needs: § Climate, climate variability, and climate change § Desertification and flooding § Natural disasters § Soils, soil quality and threats to soils, edaphic and other abiotic constraints to production § Biotic constraints to production, pathogens, pests, and weeds in their effects on sustainable production The sociological contexts of food production, access, quality, and consumption. Nutrition, food quality and food safety. Socio-political factors that impinge on the ability to satisfy global food needs: § Land, agricultural and food policy § International relations and trade § Access to food § Financial policy § Wars and ethnic unrest Research policies and priorities to ensure food security in its various dimensions.
