precipitation inversion

An elevation band along mountain slopes where precipitation decreases with increasing elevation. In the lowest 1–2 km above the base of a mountain, precipitation typically increases with height until the zone of maximum precipitation is reached, above which precipitation decreases with height. This zone of decrease is the precipitation inversion.
