In terms of weather, the region on the right of the mountain (leeward side) would be drier, due to rain-shadow effect. However, since ITCZ is located near the Latitude where the Amazon exists, that region is wet. (ITCZ is intertropical convergence zone, and is associated with wet weather, a band located near the equator, though it shifts up during the summer, and drops to near equator in the winter)
