Q1. Distinguish between Relief and convectional rainfall.
Answers
Answer:
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.
Convectional Rainfall (Noon Rain)
(i) Rainfall is caused by vertical ascent (convection) of heated air.
(ii) It is in the form of heavy downpour and is accompanied with thunder and lightening. It is for a short time.
(iii) It takes place in the equatorial region daily and in the interiors of the continents in summer.

Answer:
- Relief:
- This type of rainfall is common in places with mountains and sea.
- relief rainfall occurs near mountains besides the sea.
- At the height it is cooled and then the cloud is formed.
- The moisture laden wind blows I from the sea because of wind meets the high mountain and hence, it is forced to rise upwards.
Conventional rainfall:
- when there no weather of rain after that suddenly grey colour clouds came and start raining then it so conventional rainfall. without warning
- the sun heats the ground which causes the air to warm and become very hot.
- then the air rises upwards and get cool.
- then it condenses to form cumulus clouds.
