The article offers information on the global mean sea level (GMSL) anomaly due to the effect of the El Niño Current in 2015. Topics include the impact of the westerly wind anomalies in the Pacific Ocean to the sea level pattern, the association of the El Niño-related negative sea level anomaly to the thermocline in the Indonesian Throughflow, and the association of the anomalous easterlies to the high sea levels in the Indian Ocean.
