Which side of mountain experiences low temperature

Sagot :

Which side of mountain experiences low temperature

The answer is windward side  The windward is the side facing the prevailing wind (upwind).

  • Mountain ranges act as barriers to the  flow of air across the surface of the earth.  When a piece of warm air travels from a low valley region to the foothills of  a mountain range, it is forced to rise along the mountain side as it encounters higher terrain.
  •  As the air rises up the mountain side, it  cools as it rises (a process known as adiabatic cooling).  This cooling often results in the formation of clouds and, at the end  of the day, precipitation falling on the windward slope and at the summit.  Known as orographic lifting, this event is one of three ways  precipitation can form (the other two are frontal wedge and convection).
