What is falling moisture of clouds?
Falling moisture of clouds refers to the process by which water droplets in clouds coalesce and grow until they are heavy enough to fall as precipitation, such as rain or snow. This process is known as precipitation and occurs when the moisture content in the clouds exceeds their capacity to hold water, leading to the release of precipitation.

In California most precipitation falls on the eastern sides of mountains?
Yes, in California, most of the precipitation falls on the western sides of mountains due to the prevailing westerly winds that carry moist air from the Pacific Ocean. As the air rises over the mountains, it cools and condenses, resulting in precipitation. This phenomenon is known as orographic precipitation.
The effect of air losing moisture as it rises up a mountain slope resulting in significant precipitation on the windward side and very little precipitation on the leeward side is known as the?
THE LEEWARD SIDE IS HOTTER
One way to map precipitation is to draw lines of equal amounts of rain. Such lines are known as?
Isohyets
