How do mountain barriers impact climate?
Mountain barriers can have a significant impact on climate. They act as barriers to the flow of air masses, causing the air to rise and cool. This leads to the formation of clouds and precipitation on the windward side of the mountains. On the leeward side, a rain shadow effect occurs, resulting in drier conditions. Mountains can also affect temperature patterns, as higher elevations are generally colder than lower elevations.
