  abstract = {{M}odifications of the intertropical thermal structure along the 165°{E} meridian linked to the 1986-87 {ENSO} are described and analyzed from results of a series of cruises carried out by {ORSTOM} from {N}oum{\'e}a, and additional data from the {US}-{PRC} western {P}acific program cruises. {D}uring the evolution of the {ENSO} event, changes in the vertical distribution of temperature are found to be restricted mostly to the upper 4{OO} m. {T}herefore, temperature anomalies and vertical displacemnts of isotherms can be computed in relation to a climatology deduced from {XBT} data available in the region. {W}arning and deepening of surface layers are apparent before the onset of the {ENSO} event, more important in the southern hemisphere warm pool; then, a cooling of thermocline layers appears close to the equator at the beginning of 1987. {T}he corresponding equatorial shaling of isotherms extends progressively poleward in both hemispheres to 10° of latitude, while reaching sub-thermocline layers.},
