Identify one characteristic of the expected climate in the region on the closest side of a mountain to the ocean, when the prevailing winds carry air from the ocean over land that includes a mountain range.

The climate in the region near the side of mountain to the ocean is expected to get more rainfall as compared to when the winds blow over land.

Explanation:

The prevailing winds from the oceans will carry the moisture and they promote the rainfall in the windward side of the mountain and the prevailing winds carried to the land will result in production of low rain due to the masking effect of the mountain which will hinder the flow of air from the other side of the mountain that is the leeward side and result in low rainfall and may further result in desert like conditions.
