Explain how the landscape can modify climate.

Climate is heavily modified by the landscape. Where there are large mountain ranges, wind is deflected upwards causing rain on the windward side and a rain shadow on the leeward side. The biome that results from this is considerably different from the one that may have appeared with no wind deflection. Large expanses of ocean and flat land also change the climate by modifying air temperatures and the amount of rainfall.
