Answer:

*Relief rainfall

*Convection rainfall

*Frontal rainfall

Explanation:

Relief rainfall: Relief or orographic rain is formed when air is forced to cool when it rises over relief features in the landscape such as hills or mountains. As it rises it cools, condenses, and forms rain. The highest rainfall totals of over 1,600 mm per year occur in the mountain areas along the west coast.

Convection rainfall: occurs when the energy of the sun heats the surface of the Earth, causing water to evaporate to form water vapour. When the land heats up, it warms the air above it. This causes the air to expand and rise. As the air rises it cools and condenses.

Frontal rainfall: is caused by cyclonic activity and it occurs along the fronts of the cyclone. It is formed when two masses of air of different temperature, humidity and density meets. For example, meeting of - moisture-laden warm tropical wind with a polar air mass. A layer separating them is called the front .

Which statement about fishing in russia is true​
eimsori [14]

Remember the saying,

<em>"Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day, teach a man how to fish and he will eat forever"</em>

Well the Gopniks in Russia wrongly translated with saying to: teach a man how to become a fish and he will eat forever. So during the 1970-90s the gopniks all gathered near the lakes in order to satisfy their famine from communist regime. Unfortunately humans can not breathe under water so, fisherman in present day are still recovering bodies from the bottom of these lakes of these gopniks. Thousands still remain in lakes across this nation.
