El Niño Climate & Flood Risk Context

Brazil exhibits a stark continental contrast during El Niño: northern and northeastern regions (including the Amazon and Sertão) suffer from severe drought and fires, while southern Brazil experiences excessive rainfall and catastrophic river flooding. In Rio de Janeiro, flood risk increases when antecedent soil moisture prevents rainwater from infiltrating, forcing runoff into local municipal drains and river channels.
