What is rain shadow zone ?
Question asked by: shrenik
Asked on: 25 Aug 2009
This is a region that has less precipitation than many surrounding areas, and the reason this occurs is that the air is generally less moist due to the rain having fallen around the area therefore meaning that it has less rain.
