A class of sea-air oscillator of the El Nino-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) mechanism is considered. Variational iteration method (VIM) is applied to generate approximate solution to the system. Numerical VIM solutions obtained are then compared with results from the analytical solution and the Runge-Kutta-Fehlberg method of fourth-fifth order (RKF45).
