Pablo Cornejo

Pablo Cornejo is the executive director of the National Institute of Meteorology and Hydrology (Inamhi) in Ecuador. He is recognized for his expertise in meteorological phenomena, particularly in relation to the El Niño phenomenon, which significantly impacts global weather patterns. Cornejo has emphasized the complexity of El Niño's effects, noting that while it can lead to heavy rainfall in coastal regions of Ecuador, it may also create drier conditions in the Sierra, increasing the risk of wildfires. His work involves continuous monitoring of atmospheric conditions to help mitigate the consequences of climate-related disasters.
