The windward side of the mountain is wet, and the leeward is dry. The windward side gets more rain, and the rainshadow effect occurs on the leeward side. A Foehn wind is a type of dry, warm, down-slope wind that occurs in the leeward side of a mountain range.

Re: Meteorology B
There are more than four greenhouse gases, I believe. Water vapor, methane, carbon dioxide, CFCs, ozone, nitrous oxide...
