How do changes in the pressure conditions over the southern oceans affect the monsoons in India? (3-5 MARKER)
PLEASE ANSWER FAST!!
Dear Student,
Southern Oscillation refers to the movement of the surface air pressure between the tropical eastern Pacific and eastern Indian Ocean. When eastern Pacific Ocean is in high pressure, then Indian Ocean experiences low pressure. During certain years, the pressure conditions have altered and the Indian Ocean is experiencing higher pressure in comparison to the Pacific Ocean. This phenomenon is known as the Southern Oscillation. The Index of Southern Oscillation is measured from fluctuations in the surface air pressure between Tahiti and Darwin.
