There are many types of mechanical weathering, some due to climatic conditions, some not. Excluding non-climatic causes, mechanical weathering such as plant root growth, would be assisted by tropical conditions which encourage plant growth and root hydraulics. In desert regions, weathering is more rapid under conditions of high wind, which causes abrasion of rock surfaces. In areas that experience hot/cold alternating temperatures, frost wedging and thermal stress will contribute to rapid mechanical weathering. The type of rock being exposed to agents of mechanical weathering would also play a part in the speed at which the weathering takes place, as some rock varieties are more easily mechanically weathered than others.
Chemical weathering is slowest in cold, arid regions.

Not all landforms were formed by glaciers during the last glaciation but most of those in high latitudes were, including mountainous regions in lower latitudes.
Earth pillars are formed when, due to weathering near mountainous regions large chunks of hillside deposit at the surface of the earth.
In mountainous regions, erosion by streams often produces
The state that means "mountainous regions" in Latin is Montana.
In northern regions of the world and in the mountainous regions.
Some regions are rural urban nag mountainous
The highlands are areas that are mountainous regions or on a mountainous plateau. The climates in these regions are much cooler than the temperatures of the valley floors.
