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 .
