    EAST PACIFIC SST & SEA LEVEL FOR JULY 2000

    The last few months have seen slight rises above normal
    in both SST and sea level. This may not mark the onset of
    a longer trend because just in July there may have been
    a return to slightly cool/low values. Unfortunately, our
    colleagues in Peru and Ecuador are having problems with
    their transmitting stations that preclude a sense of the
    spatial coherence of these developments.
