Which outcome is magnified by the orographic effect?

💡 Explanation

Increased altitude during orographic lift encourages condensation and precipitation because the air cools and saturates, therefore causing greater precipitation on windward slopes, rather than localized temperature inversions that require different atmospheric conditions.
