Generation

## Rain Shadow Effect **Definition:** The rain shadow effect occurs when moist air rises over a mountain range, cools and releases precipitation on the windward side, then descends as dry air on the leeward side, creating an arid region. **Why it matters:** This phenomenon creates dramatic climate differences across short distances, producing deserts adjacent to wet regions (like Washington's rainforests versus its eastern shrublands). It profoundly affects where people can farm, settle, and access water resources, shaping both ecosystems and human civilization in mountainous regions worldwide.
