Impela uke wabona kaningi ngenkathi uhamba ngemoto futhi bazobe sebenake, uchungechunge lwamafu lokho kwakhiwa futhi ezungeze isihloko sezintaba. Ingabe izingcingo amafu we-orographic futhi bathola leli gama lokwazi ngoba ukudalwa kwabo kungenxa yemidwebo yezwe evame kakhulu ezintabeni.
Amafu we-Orographic adalwa lapho i- kushisa futhi kunomswakamo womoya ihlangana nentaba esendleleni yayo futhi iphoqeleka ukuba ikhuphuke izingqimba ezipholile kakhulu. Ngaleso sikhathi, umhwamuko wamanzi iyabumbana futhi leyo ebabazekayo ezungeze izintaba iyakhiwa. Njengeqiniso elithandekayo, isihloko seNtaba i-Everest sihlala sizungezwe amafu e-orographic.
Lawa mafu futhi ajwayelekile kakhulu kwezinye izindawo ezinjenge-Andes lapho zivuthela imimoya yasentshonalanga aqhamuka oLwandlekazi iPacific. Enye indawo lapho uzothola khona ukwakheka kwamafu we-orographic kuseNyakatho-ntshonalanga ye-United States. Lezi zindawo lapho kutholakala khona lezi zinhlobo zamafu zingaba khona kufika ku-2,500 mm kwezulu ngonyaka ngendlela yamanzi noma iqhwa.
Lawa mafu we-orographic njalo banamathele esiqongweni sezintaba lapho zakhiwe khona. Ngokuqondene nosayizi walawa mafu, akhona ngazo zonke izinhlobo. Encane emboza ingxenye yentaba kuze kube izingubo ezinkulu ehlanganisa yonke ingqungquthela. Amafu we-Orographic ngokuvamile anesimo esicaba ngokuphelele, yize lapho umoya uvunguza angaba nawo ukuma kwe-swirl, ikakhulukazi engxenyeni ephakeme kakhulu yentaba.
Ngiyethemba uthole le ndatshana mayelana nokwakheka kwe- amafu we-orographic nokuthi kusukela manje kuqhubeke, njalo uma ubona, uzokwazi ukuthi zakhiwa kanjani futhi zakhiwa kanjani.
