Definitions:

Windward Side

The side of an island, mountain, or landmass that faces the wind and receives the most rain and weather due to prevailing winds.

Leeward Side

The side of an object or area sheltered from the wind, opposite the windward side.

Movement Of Winds

The horizontal flow of air across Earth's surface, caused by variations in atmospheric pressure and the Earth's rotation.

Unequal Heating

A phenomenon where different surfaces or areas absorb and radiate heat at different rates, resulting in temperature variations.
