Additionally, it examines the connection between the three phases of El Niño-Southern Oscillation i.e., El Niño, La Niña and Neutral phases prevailing through the Pacific Ocean and changes in precipitation and temperature over Jammu and Kashmir. The former state faces quite erratic weather and the weather during monsoon in Kashmir region behaves quite opposite to what is seen in rest of India.
