Definitions:

High Pressure

A condition of the atmosphere where the air pressure is higher than the surrounding area, often leading to stable weather conditions.

Metamorphic Conditions

Conditions under which rocks undergo transformation in terms of mineralogy, texture, and structure due to heat and pressure without melting.

Regional Metamorphism

The process by which rocks are transformed by high pressure and temperature over broad areas, typically associated with mountain building.

Moderate Depths

Refers to water or areas of the ocean that are neither close to the surface nor too deep, often supporting a diverse range of marine life.
