Rainshadows occur on the leeward side of mountains where the air loses moisture as it rises and cools on the windward side, resulting in dry conditions on the opposite side of the mountain range. This phenomenon creates areas of low precipitation and can lead to desert-like climates or semi-arid conditions in rainshadow areas. Examples include areas like the Great Basin in the United States and the Gobi Desert in Asia.

Where have rain shadows formed deserts?
The rainshadow effect is what creates deserts to the east of mountain ranges in the northern hemisphere. Because our weather systems move basically from west to east, when a storm hits a mountain range the air is forced to rise over the mountain. When air rises, it cools, condenses and most of the moisture falls as rain or snow. By the time the system gets over the mountain there isn't enough moisture left to cause rain, so you get a desert on that side of the mountain.
