研究了许久，困扰了多时...

El Niño, the periodic abnormal warming of the sea surface off Peru, is a phenomenonin which changes in the ocean and atmosphere combine to allow the warm water that has accumulated in the western Pacific to flow back to the east.
由OG解释：The clause defining phenomenon is clear (in which changes in the ocean and atmosphere combine), but the subsequent phrase, allowing ... is not. 来做分析的

整个 in which... combine 还原是 combine in which，which指代phenomenon，即为：
changes (in the ocean and atmosphere) combine in phenomenon to allow the warm water (that has accumulated in the western Pacific) to flow back to the east.

简化：
changes combine (in which) to allow the water to flow back to the east.
海洋和空气的变化 结合在 这个现象里，允许/让（已经集中在西太平洋的）暖流 流回东部

疑问是in which这个介词in原本是应该放在哪里的呢？ A:此处做状语=where，其放置位置无硬性规定，Anywhere you lke。比较如下两句：1.It is the white house in which(=where) president made a speech on the sharp rise of unemployment.2.It is the uta for which I am working hard on GMAT to meet the application. 句(1)与本题十分类似，in which 做地点状语，还原后它可以被放置在任何地方：(因为无固定搭配来限制它的放置位置)可以是：president made a speech in white house on the sharp rise of unemployment.也可以是：president made a speech on the sharp rise of unemployment in white house.等等。因为此处in无固定搭配，所以表地点状语的in可放在任何你喜欢的位置。句(2)就恰恰相反了，apply for 是固定搭配，所以必然紧跟application：I am working hard on GMAT to meet the application for the uta.此时就不能随心所欲地放for了：I am working hard (for the uta) on GMAT (for the uta) to meet the application.任一括号的放置都很awkward所以，介词+which中介词的位置根据是否固定搭配及其在句中的成分而定，通常可以把句子还原来检验是否通顺。原题可还原为：changes in the ocean and atmosphere (in this phenomenon) combine (in this phenomenon) to allow the warm water that has accumulated in the western Paci?c to ?ow back to the east (in this phenomenon).例举的三处括号放置皆无问题

求还原....

与3楼同问，不会还原= =看不懂这个句子的意思，谁能完整的还原这个句子来看看？谢谢~

你的例句和你的原句有些区别，你的例句中的which做的从句中的宾语，所以你还原以后你的介词其实是前面动词词组的固定搭配，但是你发现这个which后面的单词是charges，which在宾语从句中做的是主语的位置，有细微的差别，这就是你觉得为什么补出的话很奇怪的原因

我觉得其实你可以不要那么理解，我排除的挺快的，因为D和E的不同点就是一个是in which一个是where,  GMAT语法中一般都是in which由于where使用，当然要在in which从句本身没有错误的前提下，我看的教材上是说，in which比起where来更加能够体现出物体的状态, 因为有in这个介词，还有的可能是over which，就可以表示出物体另一种状态，而两个词都可以用where来改写，所以in which更加详细一些

谢谢两位的回答。
再提个问题：把in which 还原，即 is a phenomenon which changes in XXX combine to allow the warm water that XXX to flow back to the east in。还原后好奇怪啊？

语法书上的例句：This is the hotel in which you will stay.
                            this is the hero of whom we are proud. 都可以理解，这个 "IN" 是哪个动词要求的呢？
