Why does the windward side of the mountain have a wet climate?
As moist air is pushed up the windward side of a mountain, it cools and condenses, leading to cloud formation and precipitation. This process, known as orographic lift, causes wetter conditions on the windward side of a mountain.
What is it called when wet warm air is pushed up the side of the mountain?

What dry regions froms at the back of the mountain?
Rain shadows are dry regions that form on the leeward side of a mountain range. As air is forced to rise over the mountain, it cools and releases moisture on the windward side, creating a wet climate. On the leeward side, the air descends, warms, and absorbs moisture, resulting in dry conditions conducive to forming rain shadows.

Explain why the land on the windward side of a mountain range is usually green and lush while the other side is usually drier.?
The land on the windward side of a mountain range is usually green and lush while the other side is usually drier because the clouds tend to pile up on the windward side. The clouds then drop their moisture before they cross the mountains, making the windward side wet and the other side dry.
