The Southern Oscillation is in a negative phase when pressures are higher in Darwin than in Tahiti.

The Southern Oscillation Index (SOI) is a standardized index that is derived from the observed changes in sea level pressure (SLP) between Tahiti and Darwin, Australia. This index is used to predict future weather patterns. During El Nio and La Nia events, the SOI is one measurement of the large-scale fluctuations in air pressure that occur between the eastern and western tropical Pacific. These changes can be attributed to the Southern Oscillation. In general, when time series of the SOI are smoothed, a very good correlation with variations is seen in the temperatures of the oceans throughout the eastern tropical Pacific. The negative phase of the SOI indicates that the air pressure in Tahiti is lower than normal while the air pressure in Darwin is higher than normal. Extended periods of negative Southern oscillation index values coincide with ocean temperatures over the eastern tropical Pacific that are abnormally warm (cold), which is typical of El Nio (La Nia) events.

How does igneous rock become sedimentary rock?
Zinaida [17]

Explanation:

Igneous rock can form underground, where the magma cools slowly. Or, igneous rock can form above ground, where the magma cools quickly. When it pours out on Earth's surface, magma is called lava. In this way, igneous rock can become sedimentary rock.

Any rock (igneous, sedimentary, or metamorphic) can become a metamorphic rock. If rocks are buried deep in the Earth at high temperatures and pressures, they form new minerals and textures all without melting. If melting occurs, magma is formed, starting the rock cycle all over again.
