Precipitation
It leaches calcium, potassium, and other valuable nutrients from the soil.
The rate would increase, assuming similar rate of precipitation.
The flatter the land, the more precipitation there is.
Yes and No it all depends on how bad the precipitation is and if it can effect the temperature of the air and climate if it does than that you can say yes if not than it would be a No. But for the most part precipitation can and does effect temp which has to do with the climate so Yes it does effect the climate.
Precipitation
Mountains have two effects on precipitation. These are the rain shadow effect and the orographic effect. These both cause the type and amount of precipitation to change because the air is forced higher up.
