Yes, the Sonoran Desert is a rain shadow desert. The Sierra Madre Occidental in Mexico blocks most moisture from reaching the area.
In the Atlantic Ocean, the mouth of the Amazon river, is the cause of some debate, but it is normally measured from the mouth of the Araguari River to Ponta do Navio on the northern coast of Marajó, Brazil.
Rain shadows and cold ocean currents can cause coastal deserts.
What are two natural occurrences common in the Andes, that cause the mountains to rise and the coast to sink?
The subduction of the Nazca plate beneath the South American plate.
Volcanic eruptions and earthquakes.
The Andes are the second tallest mountain range on Earth. Together, the mountains block warm moist air from the east, forcing the rain out of it before the air passes to the west side of the mountains. It is not a single mountain, but all the mountains together that are responsible for the rain shadow.
yes, mountains are the result of drifting of earths crust towards each other over millions of result... The Himalaya, Andes etc. mountains were made through this drifting process....
The Andes Mountain Range is a result of the Nazca Plate subducting under the South American Plate.

Both the Atacama and the Amazon owe their very existence to the Andes Mountains. The high Andes cause moisture from the Atlantic Ocean to condense and fall on the east side of the mountains, giving the Amazon basin copious amounts of rain. However, the mountains also prevent the moisture from reaching the western slopes, causing a rain shadow, preventing rain from falling there and creating the Atacama Desert.

Advantage: orange and rice production is increased due to the cooler temperatures causes by the vast amounts of shade. Disadvantage: the shadows from the mountains can send pandas into murderous rages and then cause them to attack and kill farmers.
