mountain, there is no cloud formation. The
 temperature is high and precipitation does not
happen. This results in formation of dry and
warm region.

 Topography is another factor that affects

climate of certain place.

 Mountainous areas greatly affect the amount of

precipitation in a certain region. The area in
which the wind blows is called windward side.

 The air moves down towards the opposite

region called leeward side. The cold air mass
starts to absorb heat and becomes warm and
dry. As a result, area near leeward side
becomes dry and has less precipitation.

 The dry region on the leeward side is called rain

shadow. Vegetation in this region includes
desert plants and grassland.

Is everything clear? The students will answer.
