decreases. because they are getting farther from
the earth's where heat is being
released.
2. On which side of the mountain do
you think the air is more humid?
Why? Windward side because
precipitation is on this side of the
mountain.
3. Explain why the windward side of
the mountain receives more rain than
the leeward side. Because
temperature decreases with altitude
water vapor eventually condenses
and there is precipitation.
