Mountains are one of the factors which influence climate. They very significantly affect rainfall. When wind moves over the sea, the warm moist air rises and cools to form orographic rainfall. Then the cool dry air moves over the ridge to the leeward side. It also affects the temperature. If the sun is shining from the east, then the eastern side of the mountain will get the sun but the other side will be in shade. |
