Mountain building, caused by collision of tectonic plates, was the ultimate cause for the formation of the Atacama Desert.
No, the Atacama Desert is a hot desert but has a more moderated climate in terms of temperatures due to a cold marine current called the Humboldt Current, which is well-known for his considerable cooling effect on the climate of the Chili and of the Peru. The Atacama Desert is cooler than other hot deserts in the world also due to his high elevation, which reduces temperatures (there are less air pressure) but makes larger diurnal temperature ranges. The Atacama Desert is classified as a hot desert, because he's located near the Tropic of the Capricorne, in a subtropical region.
The driest place on earth is the Atacama Desert in Chile. Some parts of this desert have not received any significant rainfall in centuries due to its location between the Andes Mountains and the Pacific Ocean, which create a rain shadow effect.
The snow on poles is not responsible for ozone depletion. There is no connection.
rain shadow effect. its on the other side of the mountain. and on the other side (where the atacama desert is) there is a sea, the rain cant get over to the atacama desert, creating the desert.
The Atacama Desert in Chile is known as the driest place on Earth, receiving very little rainfall each year. The desert's extreme aridity is due to the combination of its location between two mountain ranges and the cooling effect of the Humboldt Current offshore.
Places located on the leeward side of mountain ranges, such as the Atacama Desert in South America and the Great Basin in the United States, are known to suffer from the rain shadow effect. These areas receive significantly less precipitation due to mountains blocking moisture from reaching them, resulting in dry conditions and desert-like landscapes.

Cheetahs are not desert animals as they much prefer the grasslands where food is more common. Therefore, the desert has little to no effect on them.
