Chemistry

Simora [160]4 years ago
3 0

Explanation:

An extensive mountain range can cause a large desert area.

Mountains are usually geologic features that have heights that are greater than 600m.

  • Due to towering heights of mountains, they have serious effect on the weather and climatic pattern in an area.
  • Air masses that are warm are usually moisture laden.
  • As they try to cross the steep slopy side of one mountain, their pressure reduces and they drop the vapor in them causing rainfall.
  • The cold wind moves to the other side.
  • This side is called the leeward side.
  • Cold air is dry and lacks moisture.
  • This can lead to the formation of a desert.
