Weakened Orographic Influence on Cool‐Season Precipitation in Simulations of Future Warming Over the Western US

Abstract High‐resolution regional climate model (RCM) simulations of global warming consistently predict larger percentage increases in precipitation in the lee of midlatitude mountain ranges than on their windward slopes, indicating a weakening of the orographic rain shadow. This redistribution of...
