Relief Rainfall (Orographic)

(i) Relief rainfall is caused when the mountain forces the air to rise along the up slopes of the mountain.

(ii) It takes place on the wind­ward side of the mountain and the leeward side gets very less rain and is known as the rain shadow area.

(iii) It takes place in the mountain­ous region, e.g., Western Ghats. High pressure belt to the sub polar low pressure belt.
