Answer:

<u>Cascade mountain is mountain located in Bow river valley. extends from southern british columbia to washington the western side of the mountain is windy and eastern side is dry due to it acts as a barrier to the force of winds</u>.

Explanation:

  • Being a major mountain range of North America it is non volcanic. Also called as Canadian cascades. The highest peak is to mount rainier 14,000 feet.
  • This range runs from north to south thus blocking the winds from directly entering into the interior of the continent and creating a rain shadow effect on the other side of the landmass.
  • The western side of the mountain thus gets an abundance of rainfall and receives the turbulent winds blowing away from the coastlines.  Which is dry on the other side of the mountain and hence the mountain comes under a rain shadow effect.  
  • This sharp climate change is in respect of the mountain ranges creating a barrier type of environment, hence known as an Orogenic climate change or shift.

What term describes a stream which receives water through the inflow of groundwater through the stream bed?
Gemiola [76]

Gaining stream describes a stream which receives water through the inflow of groundwater through the stream bed.

Groundwater that enters a gaining stream is coming from a saturated zone. Gaining stream channels are typically at or below the water table level. When the water table crosses the land surface over a large, relatively flat area, bodies of water and marshes are formed.

The channels of gaining streams are usually at or below the level of the water table. Bodies of water and marshes form when the water table intersects the land surface over a broad, fairly flat area.

"Gaining stream," which typically draws water from the earth. The term "losing streams" refers to streams that leak water into the earth from the streambed. Rivers can grow and shrink in different places; they can grow at one point in the year and shrink at another. Additionally, even a stream that is growing will be losing some water, as the yellow arrow illustrates, and vice versa.
