Panama Canal to cut number of ships passing through due to El Niño</p>

The Panama Canal Authority (ACP) announced on Thursday that it will cut the number of vessels passing through the waterway due to low rainfall caused by El Niño.

As a result, 32 vessels per day will be able to pass through from September 15 compared to 36 currently.

The ACP said the measures were being put in place to preserve service reliability and safeguard water resources for human consumption.

Despite the arrival of the rainy season in Central America and some water-saving measures already being put in place, additional action was needed

El Niño, a pattern of periodical sea surface warming, affects weather systems globally. This year is expected to be particularly strong, with its effects made more intense by climate change.

The shipping industry is already dealing with severe disruptions due to the Iran war causing a large reduction in the number of vessels passing through the crucial Strait of Hormuz.
